Congratulations!

You have been specially selected to enter the Reader’s Digest Special Prize Draw and have already passed the initial round! You are now through to the final “Administration” round and if fortune continues to smile on you, you will win the Grand Prize of “Insolvency”. This means that you will never again be assaulted by complicated, opulent and misleading junk mail from ourselves, or be caught out by our devious marketing practices!

In order to continue to the final draw, you need to take the following actions:

  1. Do not buy any Reader’s Digest magazine or any of our other tat
  2. Encourage your friends and family to do the same
  3. Spread the word on blogs and twitter

Good luck!

I. M. Stonee-Braoke, Publisher

would a week with Gordon Brown be any better?

it’s snowing again, about 4 -5 cms in two hours – there’s not been good weather in the uk since Brown took the hot seat – can’t we get rid of him , please….?

The only surprise is that it didn’t happen sooner. A pal of mine, admittedly this was in the days prior to home PCs, sent for a tape-based language course which proved unsatisfactory. The subsequent lengthy interchange of correspondence was too convoluted to be imagined and he ended up with three language courses and two refunds – after which he gave up trying.

Biugger.
Last month they told me I had – almost certainly – won enough money to emigrate.
Now I suppose I won’t even get a distinctive figurine to treasure and keep.
