  [A group of witches has encountered a group of wizards.]
  Then the thinnest, frailest witch of them all [...] said, "Maybe they're all lost and afraid and everything, and looking for the right whatsname – thingy, how's your father dearie."
  "I'll give them how's your father," spoke the elder witch once again. She thought about this for a moment then, suddenly realising the implication, added, "No, well, what I mean is, I'll be givin' them somethin' they won't be expecting, somethin' foul and nasty and not in the least bit to do with the other, as some might have occasion to call it. I wasn't sayin' that I was goin' to rummage with the old toilet essentials, if that's what you're thinking."
