Quotes 

• Tomkinson : Where's daddy?

  Mummy : He's at the South Pole again, dear.

  Tomkinson : Oh, lucky daddy! I wish I could be there.

  Mummy : Tomkinson... He may, uh... he may not be back from the Pole.

  Tomkinson : You mean...?

  Mummy : Yes. He has a woman down there.

  Tomkinson : Another woman, mummy, besides you?

  Mummy : I'm afraid so. He keeps going back there, you know. This is his hundred and forty sixth expedition.
