Oliver is a messy disaster and I love him

Best fictional funeral oration ever probably. Not that I incline toward books that feature manybsuch scenes.

Main character is making French toast as a comforting gesture and I just scrunched up my face and clutched my forehead

... there's a real life place called Coombe Valley how am I supposed to cope with this

MC's speech was sufficient but now to attend a different wedding a he and several others have to walk across a wet field in formal attire. This should go swimmingly.

It took me 5 pages to figure out that marigolds meant "rubber cleaning gloves" and not the flower. I've been called a stupid Yank before but now I feel like I really deserve it. (The context was a little confusing but not that confusing.)

Okay main character is about to give a wedding speech and all I can think of is the original Top Gear episode where Hammond loses the race and in his mud-splattered evening wear has to give a speech about environmental conservation to a bunch of posh people. I don't think this will be that much of a disaster though
