- How old are you?
- Eight.
- Me, too!
- It's not fair, me being stuck over here on my own, while you're over there,
playing with friends all day. 
- Playing?
- Well, that number. Isn't it a part of a game or something?
- It's just my number. Everyone gets given a different number.

- Can I ask you something? Why do people wear pyjamas all day?
- They are not pyjamas.
- Well, those?
- We have to. They took all our clothes away.
- Who did?
- The soldiers.
- The soldiers? Why?
- ... I don't like soldiers. Do you?
- I do, quite. My dad's a soldier, but not the sort that takes people's clothes away for no reason.
- What sort, then?
- Well, he's the important sort. He's in charge of making everything better for everyone. So, is your dad a farmer?
- No, he's a watchmaker. Or was. Most of the time now, he just mends boots.
- It's funny how grown-ups can't make their minds up about what they want to do. It's like Pavel. Do you know him? Lives over there. He used to be a doctor, but gave it all up to peel potatoes.

- Can I ask you another question? What do you burn in those chimneys? I saw them going the other day. Is it just lots of hay and stuff?
- I don't know. We're not allowed over there. Mama says it's old clothes.
- Well, whatever it is, it smells horrid.
