At the market: a snippet

Standing next to Jock's Tattie Stall.

Expansive woman wearing expensive fur trimmed coat, in a very plummy voice: "I bought some of your potatoes. They're no good: they disintegrated when I cooked them!"

Jock, in an utterly matter-of-fact tone of voice: "Aye, well they do that when you over cook them."

Perfect.
