“Bill, stop rattling the catalogue. You sound like Santa having a nervous breakdown.” “I am nervous, Molly. Children have sticky hands and surprising aim.” “They’re six, not snipers.” “Last year, one hit me with a sausage roll from twelve feet away.” “That was because you shouted, ‘Nobody move, this piñata is evidence.’” “It was a reasonable misunderstanding.” “Tonight, we enter during the magician’s rabbit routine, sweep the presents into the laundry hamper, and leave through the garden gate.” “The hamper has unicorns on it.” “Excellent camouflage. Adults never suspect unicorns.” “What about the dog?” “Bribe it with these mini sausages.” “You bought cocktail sausages?” “I bought insurance with toothpicks.” “And the parents?” “Distract them by praising their patio furniture. Homeowners become helpless when complimented on decking.” “Suppose the birthday girl recognizes us?” “We wear these masks.” “Those are princess masks.” “Exactly. Criminality loves a tiara.” “I feel ridiculous.” “Bill, you once burgled a bank dressed as a chimney sweep.” “That was disguise.” “You had no chimney brush.” “I had conviction.” “Fine. We take presents, not cake.” “Why not cake?” “Because cake crumbs identify suspects.” “Then why are you carrying a fork?” “For morale.” “Your morale has frosting.” “Operational frosting.”
