   I am reading a book by a Surfugese author at the moment, so if you bump into Senor Saramago, please give him my best wishes. Should you want to keep your hand in, grouting-wise, i’m sure Andy & Sophie can sort you out

   Happy Birthday for the sixth, we’ll have a whip-round and see if we can afford that shed-load of gingernuts.

   That’s a thought – Penfold might have some grouting lined up for me I suppose – if I break some tiles I can go down the mosaic route.

   Now GW, you’re in charge of keeping the goddesses in order ………. good luck!

   Box head might be travelling as well – could need it to avoid the Daddypaparazzi.

   Be kind to GW and please keep your knitting to a minimum …… and NO parties!!

   The other day you called me in for dictation, and I promised to have the list back to you asap. In Fracskatchewan, asap means ‘whenever fracas feels like it and sometimes at the very last minute but you still got it so quit complaining’.

   Here it is:

   Remember to pack the following:

   1. Incontinence pads
   2. Air freshener (must stay on Tango’s good side so as not to find out what the non-Penfold grrr is like.)
   3. Aspirin for TG (she will need it)
   4. Diet water to take daily vitamins with.
   5. Hat, mask and beard (for security blanket type reasons…)
   6. Speedo
   7. Suppositories (note: do not use prior to the use of #6)
   8. Office Credit Card (so as to ‘expense’ gifts bought for fracretary and fanzine editor.)
   9. Gingernuts
   10. Vaccination documentation for tattoo parlour. (Require that tattoo to assist anyone finding me lost somewhere… to return me to TG… isn’t she lucky?)

   Fracretary’s Edit: I’m only the fracretary charged with taking dictation and typing the list. I accept no responsibility for his insistance on #6.

   (Have a good holiday you two… I’ll just leave the bills unpaid until you get back! )

   That list is very thorough Fraccy ….. I’d have forgotten the Speedos if you hadn’t reminded me ….. Surfugal will be extremely grateful …….

   [If there's any gossip I should know about, email me ....]

   Take care ……. and no rummaging!

   Well, of course it’s thorough… it’s your list, silly. I just took dictation and typed it up. Hmmm…. these memory issues might make it prudent to make #10 a priority before you leave rather than getting the tatt there.

   I dictated that? …… gosh I am efficient ….. I left off “pack teeth” BTW ……

   Have a fun trip and try not to think of the termites, death watch beetles and dry rot which are all converging on your shed.

   Have a happy birthday on the 6th.

    Not having a roof on the bedroom will probably be perfect for him Penfold, so not to worry.

    You see, he’s been spouting off at places on the interweave, about the size of his ‘duffel bags’… so not having a roof will mean he won’t have to cram them in. Nothing worse than not having enough room for one’s bags.
