Mrs Snodgrass Responds

"Dear Mr Mews.  I am oddly flattered by your persistence and eccentric character.  I might say it's been a long time since a gentleman has showed interest in my company.  I am intrigued and I will accept your invitation for dinner with one request; I would prefer that this Quigley character not attend as I find his beady eyes and his constant chatter disagreeable.  Yours, Constance Snodgrass."

Mr Mews Doesn't Take No For An Answer

Hello?  Anyone home?

Sounds like footsteps.

Are you at home Mrs Snodgrass?

That Mews again.  He's really becoming a thorn in my side...
