Salmon Fishing in the Yemen Quote

Harriet: Are you sure you won't have one [a glass of wine]
Harriet: ?
Dr. Alfred Jones: At lunchtime?
Harriet: Dr. Jones, I haven't spoken a word of Mandarin in about four years so I am celebrating even if you're not.

Harriet: No exceptions.
Dr. Alfred Jones: None that I can think of. Well yeah, I got married on a Friday but I think it was a, a, as I recall a bank holiday in Northern Ireland so I allowed myself, I think, a glass on a technicality.
Harriet: [She just stares at him]
Dr. Alfred Jones: That was an attempt at a joke miss Chetwode-Talbot.
Harriet: Oh! Heh-heh-heh. Right! Good one!
