'Dealing with a man,'said thenight-watchman,'isas easy as a teetotaller walking along a nice wide pavement; dealing with a woman is like the same teetotaller, after four or five whiskies, trying to get up a step that ain't there.'
I'm only a beer teetotaller, not a champagne teetotaller.
Lastly (and this is, perhaps, the golden rule) no woman should marry a teetotaller, or a man who does not smoke.
