Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Caravan Man Suddenly she stopped, stooped, attempted to pick something off the pavement, failed, and began hastily taking off her glove. With the alacrity that most clearly distinguishes a man offering service to a pretty woman, Bamfield stepped forward, picked up the coin, and handed it to her. She had said, "No, no!" as he leant down. Now as she took the coin she looked blank. "Oh, dear," she said, "you´ve spoilt my luck." "I´m so sorry," said Bamfield. "I never thought for a moment - What have I done?" "I´d just seen it," she answered. "Look! a lucky sixpence, a sixpence with a hole in it. Anybody might have picked it up; in fact, it can´t have been here, on the pavement in Oxford Street, for more than a second or two. Perhaps the owner" - she looked round, but no one seemed to be approaching in search of a dropped sixpence. "I suppose it is really mine - or yours -" "Ours, perhaps," said Bamfield. "But it does n´t mean luck for me now." "Why not?" asked Bamfield. "You´ve got it, and the hole´s still in it."
