"Able Seaman Titty, water the flowers!" doesn't sound at all like Susan to me.
"The cabin could do with a bit more airing tomorrow" is much more her style...
Hmm, is it the flowers or the water? Susan does issue direct commands, though
I think Roger is more often at the receiving end than Titty. Somehow ordering
people about most of the time is a much more Nancyish trait. Nancy, flowers
and water brings us to the passage that Ed quoted all that time ago describing
how the Amazons and the D's rushed around getting Beckfoot ready for the GA.
(Beckfoot plumbers take a deep breath!)
