“What is the harm?”
“No harm at all. So, in my turn, I will ask North Face Fast Drying Takki your permission to state our respective situations.”
“State away.”
“You are going to Perm — like me?”
“Like you.”
“And probably you will go from Perm Spanien Fodboldtrøjer to Ekaterenburg, since that is the best and safest route by which to cross the Ural Mountains?”
“Probably.”
“Once past the frontier, we shall be in Siberia, that is to say in the midst of the invasion.”
“We shall be Naiset Northface Apex Bionic Takki there.”
“Well! then, and only then, will be the time to say, Each Nigeria Pelipaidat for himself, and God for Grækenland Fodboldtrøjer —”
“For me.”

“Bravo, Mr. Blount!”
“Very good, M. Jolivet.”
“I will try and match that!”
