The door opened slowly and the figure of Joanne stood in the passageway with the light of the room bearing down from behind.

1: Where the heck have you been Bill? Is this the time to get home - You know you're supposed to take the kids out today... What's the matter with you? You always do this to us! {to be continued}
2: Bill... you're home! You've really disappointed the kids today, Bill - You should've phoned to let me know you'd be late... Come on in... Sit down and I'll fix you some dinner. {to be continued}
