Friends,

Frank Gauntlett, the man who used to be a legend in his own lunchtime, arrives from the land of the Lotus eaters (Aus) and tells us he doesn't take lunchtime anymore. It' s very hard to believe.

Well, I'm going to start a course today which will eventually lead to me becoming a diploma coal merchant so I suppose on a day like that I should believe anything. But as an experience I must say it ranks alongside the morning I switched on breakfast tv (we have it over here now) and saw a man feeding cold mock kangaroo soup to a skink, a kind of stump tailed lizard.

The skink appeared to enjoy it and I suppose I should too.

I guess you're only here for a short while but if you get time perhaps you might like to come over and have lunch with us one Saturday or Sunday. You could watch anyway? Alternatively, why not come to Whipsnade with us? We go quite often. You could wander amongst the wallabies.

See you soon.
Jo
