Cold water Quote by Tom Upton

“the landing the old man started to murmur, “Cold, cold water,” but neither one of us took much notice. “You know I nearly got her,” Ricky said in a mischievous way. “Yeah?” “Yeah,” he swore. “What happened?” A look of disdain passed over his face. “I’m not sure I should say.” quote by Tom Upton
