Oh Sireen, my dear, to use the 'Ull vernacular, we are gutted. jOhn and Brian's business launch should be some consolation, surely? You'll just have to come back on a Nellie's Sunday, preferably the October, when the 'Helmets are planning their greatest outrage to date. We have acquired explosives, but my quartermaster says they're sweating and unstable, and will fit in nicely. We have also discussed the practicalities of a feminine shave. I'm sure that nice Linda would welcome that harmony stuff whot you do good, and we can enjoy your thr'upenny bits 9Yours and Alanwww.'s, that is).
