He addressed his brother-in-law but looked at his sister. Maybe Des trying to grope Lou in the kitchen would have put him nicely in Celia’s debt. Buying a big fancy black car for her to swank about in might just get Des out of the mire.

‘Oh, I don’t know,’ said Des with a regretful shake of the head. ‘I’ve seen a gorgeous silver BMW in Buckley’s.’

‘It’s a lot easier to keep clean than black,’ said Celia, who had set her heart on a car with the blue and white BMW button. It was far more prestigious in her book than a series of hooped rings.

Phil knew instinctively that they’d already made up their minds before they came today and had taken advantage of his hospitality. Even worse, they were buying from ‘Mr New-Kid-on-the-Block’ Jack Buckley, his sworn business rival. Well, if they weren’t buying then they might as well piss off until December, he thought. Des was as entertaining as syphilis and Celia was only interested in being bigger and better than them. Oh! He must remember to tell Lou that he’d invited them for Christmas dinner. His classic car business would be nearly up and running by then, and he and Fat Jack could apply double pressure on Des to invest, greased further by copious amounts of brandy and Lou’s turkey and trimmings.
