Irvin,

Rotten luck that General Sir Jeffrey Pilkington-Smythe cannot meet till 27th July, I had hoped we could launch the offensive sooner. Sir Jeffrey is the right chap for the job I am surprised he hasn’t popped round, we usually furnish him with some “special” statuary you know the kind with hidden compartments when he has an arms deal in the works.
I do hope he has not gone over to the other side; those blighters at Portwrinkle Pottery have been trying to get his business since 1966.

But I diverge from the topic, in answer to your question about your book. It’s a little embarrassing but I didn’t actually buy your book, you see I picked up a copy at the news while the bootblack was attending to his trade, seems I forgot to pay for it.

Your suggestion of stun grenades should work but I don’t know where we are going to get the heavy artillery regiment on such short notice. Perhaps we could arrange for a bombing run and unleash a rain of phosphorus incendiaries instead. I’ll be round at the “Queens Head On A Stick” just north of the Frothington Works, for a pint or three should you need to contact.

Yours truly,
Fredric Frothington III

Are you both insane? This was a simple sartorial question I didn’t expect a full out air strike. While I could probably survive by hiding in the Anderson Shelter with my corgi, I doubt Mrs. Watkins in number 32 would survive such an attack as hers was moved to the allotment several decades ago.
