- No, much as I hate to be the bearer of bad news, that Dan Crow died in a freak
- Wombat juggling accident just before Christmas. He was a fine pencil sharpener
- and we shall all miss him dearly. He couldn'f howver, spoll.
-
- I am his distant and not nearly so handsome cousin, also known as Dan after
- an unfortunate mix-up at birth, the details of which I shall not belabour
- now. Suffice it to say that certain very high-up members of Her Majesty's
- government have been implicated in the sinister plot.

- Oh, and I'm writting my thesis. Ahem. Nuff said.
