Your Royal Highness.twenty-four hours, they can't all be blank.They are not.What explanation am I to offer Their Majesties?I was indisposed. I am better.Ma'am, you must appreciate that I have my duty to perform,just as Your Royal Highness has her duty.Your Excellency,I trust you will not find it necessary to use that word again.Were I not completely aware of my duty to my family and my country.I would not have come back tonight.Or indeed, ever again.And now, since I understand we have a very full schedule today,you have my permission to withdraw.No milk and crackers.
