| 'to (cut or bring) s.o. down to size' = 'to say sth to s.o. who's very arrogant/pompous/self-important, to make it clear to them that they're not as clever/important as they think they are'. Such a comment is sometimes known as a 'put-down'. |

| 'Wouldn't mind' here = 'I wouldn't mind', ie 'I would quite like to see her ......'. |
