Excerpt:
“What was that thing you wrote on it again?” Crowley said. “You know. When you were here around Christmas. Defaced my blackboard instead of cleaning the place. Did you ever see her comments, Angel?” “I think she wrote that you’re a numpty, dearest.” Mrs Sturrock cackled in approval. “Nonono, not that; the other thing – yes, Fell, very funny, you’re both bloody geniuses, shut up. Something about… ‘bout stars? Astrology.” Mrs Sturrock got a blank expression for a moment, then brightened. “Oh aye! Yous’d written, ‘the sun wiz in i’ sign’, so I wrate, ‘maybe it wiz no’.”
