Why couldn't we beat those numbers? I dunno.

Last year we beat them, but it came down to the last relay — this year shouldn't be as close. They have a couple of good swimmers, but we have more depth than last year, so we are expecting a win.

go into the other guy's den and beat 'em.

I know numbers are beautiful. If they aren't beautiful, nothing is.

They were brought up in these ruins and no longer notice them.

I didn't realise the numbers were quite that good. To beat Thomas is a great win for me and I'm delighted.
