Red and white checks

Hello, Matilda. Would you like to come in for a coffee?

No, I can see you're working.

Oh, but I can stop and chat for a while.

We-ell. I tell you what: as it's so foggy, you're not going to get a decent shot outdoors, are you?

No.

So, why not take a formal portrait of me? That way, you get your blip done and dusted - I mean, posed and posted - early, and then you can get on with your writing undistracted.

Good idea. Here pull up a chair.

Blippers will think I'm always sitting down. Let me use the chair as a prop - look, its seat is red and white checked like my legs!

Brilliant! There you go. What do you think of that?

Oh, I should've brushed my hair ...

No, no. It looks fine. And everyone will enjoy your cheerful smile.

OK. I must go and leave you to it. Do get on with your work now, though, won't you?

Of course. Thanks for popping round. Come again soon ...
