And now, my dear old chap,ā said young Bingo, snuggling down cosily, āyou mustnāt keep me up talking all night. Itās all right for you fellows who have nothing to do, but Iām a busy man. Good night, old thing. Close the door quietly after you and switch out the light. Breakfast about ten tomorrow, I suppose, what? Right-o. Good night.ā
