Dear Morticiaaa. Haven't you forgotten the Yak Hairbrush and the Duckweed Strainer? What about your Penny Whistle?
Cheers
Cher S`wave, Those vital items are kept strapped to my person at all times in the Lionel Crumhorn Emergency Survival Body Belt, as kindly sent to me by Hank via Her Majesty`s Camel Mail. I treasure it. It enhances the quality of my life beyond measure.  I send you A Thousand Lotus Scented Waffles   |

I seem to be of the school of thought (unconscious/muddled) that thinks that anything can be accommodated within the confines of a handbag, should be. Makeup bag, keys, comb, standard lamp, emery board, jar of mint sauce, jugged hare, spare keys, monkey wrench, conker on a string, spare candles, sofa bed.....  Sorry Mort , I took a photo of yours when you threw it at George ( have you any idea how difficult this was to write tonight? I can only see double...  A |

A I'm glad to see Mort has GREEN things in her bag.  I want a bag. And I'm a guy, so we're not meant to have them, unless they're rugged, sling-o'er-yer-shoulder knapsacks, or sleek black distressed leather ones, or, best of all, Tescos' carrier bags bulging with useless objects or impoetant-looking paperwork. |

Ho dear Mort. Many, many thanks for the interestingly perfumed Waffles. I've just had a couple and am vastly intrigued by the delicate aftertaste. I suspect they will go well with chilled Retsina. How kind of Hank to have sent you a Lionel Crumhorn. They would have been a great asset to us all when we were up and down the Nile looking for Sydney Verdivia and Pietro the Pimp. Whatever became of Vadontya Bukeroff? Ah! Those were the days , and what good company we had with dear "A", Anna, Mellow Dee and the rest of the "family". Will we ever see their like again? I'm glad your bag was green. I like green. A civilised colour. Cheers.  |

Ho dear "A". Things up here are much as they have been for some time. Our weather has been excellent but, thank heavens, we have some rain now. Yesterday I managed to get three lawns done before I staggered towards the malt. Accents up here are still the same as of yore - and quite a lot of yore at that. I've just been thinking about our "films" and have read some pages of the first one. Truly amazing. Where did it all come from? Totally weird imaginations at play in a way that would now never happen in the "old place". There, matters are pretty boring and dull with not many "members" posting regularly. It's a shame, particularly if you cast your mind back to the middle of last year when activity there was lively and ongoing. I've just read Abramsky's speech. Hardly a mention of R3 but quite a bit about R1 and R2. They should all be ashamed at what they have killed off. Cheers |

and what good company we had with dear "A", Anna, Mellow Dee and the rest of the "family". I've a feeling Mellow Dee may perhaps happily still be amongst us but under another soubriquet? Ever since the 'Incident With The Green Handbag' I've been anguishing over whether scooping up the scattered contents, along with a handful of Southwark grit, and shovelling it all back in the bag was indeed the act of a gentleman? It certainly would have been, mutatis mutandis, in the case of groceries, I was taught, but a lady's handbag is such private and sensitive territory where the eye of man should never set foot that perhaps the correct behaviour would have been to pretend that nothing had happened at all, stared into the middle-distance, and continued to discourse loudly and authoritatively on the progress of the campaigns in the Crimea. |

I share this feeling. perhaps the correct behaviour would have been to pretend that nothing had happened at all, stared into the middle-distance, and continued to discourse loudly and authoritatively on the progress of the campaigns in Mesopotamia.
Well, it's certainly a tactic of proven efficacy. |

Fear not George. I have over the course of two days , with the aid of state-of-the-art laser powered tweezers, carefully extracted the Southwark grit embedded in my lipstick, powder compact and immaculate white handkerchief. I intend to place them in a time capsule, along with Martle`s cigarette ash which I carefully brushed from my scarf. I believe that these artifacts will enrich future generations and cause lively, nay, heated debate as to their provenance.
I trust this meets with your approval.
Yr hmble & obdnt srvnt
Mort

And here I thought only Liszt had such admiresses that collected his cigaret buts and secretly cut his hair to keep it with themselves at all time.
This was a clever ploy Morticiaa to keep some of the items from famous personalities.
