He winks knowingly, pats Rodney kindly on the shoulder, and leads the way out of the house.

Yet I think the happiest days I knew over there were those spent with Terry. It was rather a sell, though, having no real adventure, particularly as I had promised one not only to myself but to my friends when starting for Paddy-land. I beg your pardon a thousand times!
