30 years later.

- Do you remember the old, strange man we met in the pub when we were little? He gave us food and presents. I can't remember his name.. I wonder what happened to him?- Don't you remember? No you were so little at that time. He wasn't welcome in the pub anymore. I think the other customers thought he abused us. A shame, though, we could eat properly, and I remember all the gifts he gave us. We had a splendid time.- But what happened afterwards? We never saw him again, did we?- No, we didn't. I think I heard from the other customers later, that he was seen roaming the streets with a bottle in his hand, dirty and filthy. I don't think he ever spoke to a human beeing in his whole life. He was a nice man, it's a shame, really ... more tea?In response to uncle Ernest

I like your response. Your last sentence tells me that the sisters have learned nothing.
