(An excerpt from The Last Shout, Part 2.  London, 1996.  The Monsoons’ kitchen.  Edina is opening her mail.)

Edina: (Reading letter.)  Do I want to do something on the Millennium Committee?    Do I want to do something for the Millennium?  (To Patsy.)  Do you think I should do that?

Patsy:  (Pinning up her hair.)  Well, when is it?

Edina: (Looking at letter.) It doesn’t say.  (To Saffy.)  Darling, when is it, when is it, the Millennium?

Saffy: (Pointedly.)  The year 2000.

Edina:  (Balling up letter.)  Well, why are they bothering me now, eh?  Anyway, I know exactly what they should do.

Saffy:  (Disdainfully.)  What? Let me guess: a free Stones concert in Hyde Park.

Edina:  No, no, no.  A huge worldwide bacchanalian feast.  They should just live it, darling.

Patsy:  And a free Stones concert, Eddy.

Edina:  (Quickly agreeing.)  Yeah, and a free Stones concert.
