Quotes from Sacharissa Crisplock

She'd been a respectable young woman for some time. In certain people, that means there’s a lot of dammed-up disreputability just waiting to burst out.  (TT)

…she suffered from misplaced gentility and the mistaken belief that etiquette meant good breeding.  She mistook mannerisms for manners.  (TT)

‘You don’t think a dress like this would be a bit…forward, do you?’ said Sacharissa, holding the dress against herself.
Rocky looked worried.  He hadn’t been hired for his dress sense, and certainly not for his grasp of colloquial Middle Class.
‘You’re quite a lot forward already,’ he opined.
‘I meant make me look like a fast woman!’
‘Ah, right,’ said Rocky, getting there.  ‘No.  Def’initly not.’
‘Really?’
'Sure.  No one could run much in a dress like dat.'  (TT)
