At the rummy desk she was lording (ladying?) it over the others and explaining how they didn’t maintain money in the home and just some valuables had been swiped when Mrs Sishta requested if what was stolen was real stuff or pretend. This gave Mrs Mundul who had been a sufferer of a break-in final yr an opportunity to say that crooks as of late are very sensible and so they know who’s value robbing and who just isn’t, they do their homework and are actually skilled.
