Special Announcement

[caz]

Hey, I've been working from home since March... with 6 school/uni kids and working wife... give me an AUGUST 1st celebration kit!!! please

As far as the celebration kit goes, Ven, I strongly suspect Lord Orsam will be coming in his birthday suit. More than once.

And I will be staying attractively in a darkened room in case I frighten the Observers.

I wouldn't mind Observer's funny little barb, but it's not as if I'm here to enter a beauty contest. This is a public place where we communicate our thoughts, opinions and arguments in writing, with the subject matter being a 63-page piece of handwritten work by an as yet unidentified individual. If that person had been identified, none of us would be insane enough to remain here.

And yet we get posters here like Observer, who can't even see the irony of their own pseudonym, but gaily carry on seeing but not observing.

Horses for courses.

But Lord O's Big Sexy Truest Ever Reveal is fine for starters.

By the way, I very nearly was single again just now, Ven. The master of Brown Towers has a new job working from home and took a power nap during his lunch break, asking me to wake him at 2pm. I was just in the nick of time.

Love,

Caz

PS Me sprouts are simmering, Gary

[caz]

I think we should have a street party.

Caz can bring the sprouts; Ike can bring the wit; and I’ll bring the blanket:

Oh, and we may need a bit of humble pie - just in case.

Hilarious, Gary. I'll get the sprouts on now, so they will be boiled to buggery like the LOBSTER come Saturday.

Love,

Caz

So are you suggesting that a forger was incapable of randomly guessing more or less precisely the Maybrick signature found in his marriage certificate, Caz?

Not at all, Ike. If Lord Orsam and his Siamese twin the Baron can argue with straight faces and twirling moustaches that Anne Graham could have multiple personality disorder, to explain why the diary handwriting looks no more like hers than it does JM's, then I think I'm entitled to argue that Robbie Johnson may have had the gift of 'tuning in' to the deceased, to discern how Jim formed his signature on the marriage licence - also known as a marriage allegation I believe, for those who needed to get hitched in a hurry and avoid all the faff. Didn't young Bobo arrive eight months later? The certificate would presumably have come after the ceremony, when the newlyweds were about to tuck into their wedding breakies of LOBSTER and bubbly. I can hear Robbie now, with his Cherry Ripe from Night of the Demon, as he prepares to let Sir Jim take over control of his etching tool.

The irony is never far from the surface, is it? Everyone [including me] pooh-poohed Anna Koren's analysis that the diary author had the same mulitiple personality disorder which Anne Graham is now alleged to suffer from.

Is it a mere coincidence that the same people who have fallen hook, line and sinker for Bongo Barrett's nonsense are also likely to fall hook, line and sinker for LOBSTER?

Love,

Caz

It's pointless, I can only think he had a taste of that fluorescent trifle you dish out at tea time before he would do so.

And yet it's what Mr Murphy is down on the record as saying.

What's pointless is you trying to erase that record without so much as a smidgen of jeweller's rouge. But do keep trying anyway.

Love,

Caz

No Ike, Kike ikikee, whatever your name is now. I'm a whisky drinker... no taste for beer (does that make me un-Australian?).. we have to create some sort of Annual memorial.. tree... pumpkin... kangaroo pelt??!!

[Iconoclast]

Ohhh. I can't wait for 2pm (UK time) for the big announcement!! Do i decorate a tree...a scarecrow!! what...I'm Australian.. what's the custom??!!

Erm, get pissed I think, Ven. How are you and your fellow antipodeans on the guzzling large quantities of beer game?

[Iconoclast]

On the subject of lunch, BBC News has an article today reporting that Greggs the Bakers have sales at about 72% of this time last year so they consider that a great success.

From their perspective, yes, but - honestly - is that what we were all waiting patiently for in our locked-down homes for over three months? A sausage roll and a mince pie?

Sad but true.

Suddenly my own lunch habits seem quite virtuous ...

Ike

Ohhh. I can't wait for 2pm (UK time) for the big announcement!! Do i decorate a tree...a scarecrow!! what...I'm Australian.. what's the custom??!!

All I know is that whoever scratched JM's signature in it was very good at scratching JM's signature in it.

So are you suggesting that a forger was incapable of randomly guessing more or less precisely the Maybrick signature found in his marriage certificate, Caz?

Ike,

I hope you’re not having lunch with Jane Mansfield. (See Derek and Clive)

Gary

Hi Gary,

Quite honestly, during lockdown, I've had to turn my hand to various jobs to keep the wolves from the door. If it wasn't for people with Jane's unfortunate condition, I probably wouldn't be having lunch at all today.

Not moaning or anything. Just glad to still have a job. Lunch isn't quite what it was pre-lockdown, but I can't complain too much.

PS For those currently eating lunch, my apologies for the gratuitous scatological allusions. If it makes you feel less queasy, I am of course making it up.

Regards,

Ike

[caz]

Yes I have and there are spelling mistakes

Read postings from Ike? Are you serious?

I meant the images Ike posted of Mike Barrett's handwritten work. None so blind, eh, Observer?

I believe you'd look quite attractive in a darkened room

I'll take that as a compliment. I'd like to look attractive anywhere these days.

Love,

Caz
