There were times when Holly hated Lili Frond and this was one of them. She'd overheard her gossiping with the bimbo squad in the corridor -

"Poor Holly," Lili had simpered, "you'd think she'd be able to get a man. After all, she's not hideous, though she doesn't make the best of herself. Perhaps if she wasn't always zipping above-ground she might have more luck. She's in her eighties and I bet she's never been kissed!"

Holly's simmering anger nearly reached boiling point. If she wasn't careful, she was going to lose her temper and tell Frond a thing or two.
