<As they walked through the now~open door, their host said:
'Please excuse my wife ~ she is feeding the elephants in the garden. She won't be long'

Brad and Christine looked at each other ~ 'elephants?' asked Brad, not usre he had heard correctly.
'Yes, Brad. Elephants.'
They all went into a large lounge.
'Drink anyone? '

On the mantlepiece was a row of decanters with various liquids clearly visible in them.
'What would you like, Miss Christine>'

Christine crossed the room to the window. As she looked out she could see June Ward walking towards the house.
