    Pete (to hotel receptionist)- "What time does the swimming pool open in the morning ?"
    Hotel receptionist - "8 O'clock Sir"
    Pete (at the top of his voice) - "EXCELLENT !!" (he never does go swimming)

    Steve - "Let's predict where we will be in five years time"

    Pete (on sailing) - "It is an absolute waste of time - you might as well go on a bus trip with no scenery"

    David - "I am sure I can remember the way to the Indian Restaurant"
