Unfortunately, Mrs Quoad's place got hit by a V2, Darlene or no
Darlene. Corydon's Throsp's roof garden might be a fetching spot to
toss down (or is that throw up?) a banana daiquiri or two. Or we could
try the control room in nearby Lower Chelsea (that's Battersea to you
and me, guvnor) Power Station.

I'm all set for a second reading of MUMBO JUMBO. Having just got

should be a little clearer this time round.
