    Ha ha, very good!
    Mrs Dilo, on the other hand, would have been suitably impresed by her husband's frugality.

      Indeed, I have long thought that the firm guiding hand of a masterful husband would be a proper cure for your fancy and unladylike behaviour.

      Hmmm 🤔 clearly finding an appropriate and commanding husband for you, needs to be treated with urgency.
