Q

(Maureen shakes her head and refuses to answer)

A

Well, I don’t know. I don’t know what I’m supposed to have said. What am I supposed to have said? Whatever it is I’m supposed to have said, I’m sorry I said it– if I said it.

Q

Maureen: You do give a stuff, that’s the point. You give a huge stuff. I wish you didn’t

A

I don’t. I do what I like. I always have done. I don’t take any notice of them. I don’t care what they think

Q

Q

Maureen: Better than the way it was before?

A

Er– well…

22
Q

Maureen: Exactly. It’s for her. I dyed it for your mother. So I’d look dead ordinary. I haven’t even met the woman and I’ve dyed my hair for her.

A

You didn’t need to

23
Q

Maureen: I did need to

A

Why?

24
Q

Maureen: Because

A

Yes?

25
Q

Maureen: Because. I want to be right for you. I want to look right for you… I have to be right for you

A

You are right for me

26
Q

Maureen: I hope so. I really, really hope I am. I’ve got all my hopes on you Adam

A

So what if they don’t approve? What the hell? What’s it matter? We’ll have to spend next Christmas on our own, won’t we? won’t make a scrap of difference to me, the way I feel about you. Just be you, that’s all. Be yourself. That’s who I fell in love with. That’s who I love. Don’t you see?

27
Q

Maureen: I hope you belive that.

A

I do… Well

28
Q

Maureen: And you think that blue dress I bought will be all right? For this party?

A

It’s not a party, I’ve said. It’s just dinner, that’s all. Supper. Us six for supper. Here in this restaurant. Quite informal. Nothing flash.

29
Q

Maureen: You think that dress is too much then?

A

It’s perfect. Come as you like, they’re not fussy. My father never dresses up these days if he can help it. He’ll probably come in an old sweater, knowing him

30
Q

Maureen: What about your mother

A

Well, my mother– yes she’ll probably wear something a bit–

31
Q

Maureen: And what about whatshername, your brother’s wife?

A

Steph? Well… she’s usually fairly casual. She’ll probably wear a dress of some sort–

32
Q

Maureen: Short or long?

A

I don’t know. Short.

33
Q

Maureen: How short?

A

Well, you know, long short. I don’t know. Come in your jeans. What does it matter?

34
Q

Maureen: I hope it’s not too boring

A

What, the party?

35
Q

Maureen: No, that dress I bought. I don’t usually wear things like that. I could maybe put a bit of bright jewellery with it, just to cheer it up.

A

Not too much

36
Q

Maureen: No. Do you think those ear-rings I wore the other night would do? You know, the parakeets?

A

Oh yes. The big ones, you mean?

37
Q

Maureen: Yes. Do you think they’d go with it?

A

(uncertainly) yes

38
Q

Maureen: No?

A

Have you got any others?

39
Q

Maureen: I’ll wear the studs

A

Wear the parakeets if you like

40
Q

Maureen: No, they’re wrong. They’re definitely wrong. I’ll wear my opal studs.

A

They’re nice

41
Q

Maureen: You gave them to me…. What do you think?

A

Yes. yes. (He studies it). What is it exactly?

42
Q

Maureen: It’s macrame. It’s for holding a plant holder. You put it in here. Then you hang it up. Like that. Do you see?

A

Oh yes, that’s great

43
Q

Maureen: Is it the sort of thing she likes, do you think?

A

Oh yes, she’ll love it

44
Q

Maureen: Really?

A

Oh yes

45
Q

Maureen: I made it myself

A

Yes

46
Q

Maureen: I couldn’t think what to buy her that wasn’t either terribly expensive and then I thought–

A

You don’t have to give her anything, you know. You haven’t even met her

47
Q

Maureen: Oh, I have to give her something if I’m going to her party

A

It’s just supper. There’s the book. The poetry book that I got her. That could be from the both of us, if you want

48
Q

Maureen: No, I’d like to give her something personal. From me. I think that’s important. So long as you think it’s right

A

It’s great

49
Q

Maureen: Took my hours

A

Yes

50
Q

Maureen: I kept getting it wrong. I haven’t made one since I was at school. Used to male masses of them at school. All we ever did at school actually

A

It’ll be a great evening, you wait and see. Trust me. They’ll love you. And you’ll love them

51
Q

Maureen: Yes. You’re right. It’s going to be great, isn’t it? And if they don’t like me– well, fuck ‘em

A

You– er– won’t use language like that in front of them, will you?
