He's a tough cookie. One of the rare ones who can dish it out
but can take it too and knows it's all in good fun. I think of
old-school brandy-and-cigars and English sitting rooms hotly
debating over matters of world-import by the fireplace and then
making plans to go to the cricket match on Saturday (or whenever
cricket matches are held. I'm an American, so it's a mysterious
sport to me)
