EXTRACT: This is my lair. The best place to tell a story... this box... Have you remembered to close the door? The windows? Have you locked the garage? The car? Closed the curtains? The shutters? Done up your buttons? Zip? Is your mouth closed? Your eyes? Are all your internal organs ... inside? (mischievously) Is the cat out ... of the bag? (serious) Please put it back in. And close the bag... but you can turn off your mobile phone first. I don't want your conversation leaking into mine.
