I think Ms Outram is trying to encapsulate a lifetime's experience in one evening of bolging - quite a feat!

On the other hand, I am being my usual minimal self, describing (where necessary) the most miniscule and irrelevant aspects of what I "really" get up to in the course of my diurnal (not to mention nocturnal) activities.

This is part of the art of being a belletrist.

[The adjective belletristic has one meaning:

Meaning #1: written and regarded for aesthetic value rather than content]
