ps--if CycleFrance adopts me--I will be very, very, very good. I promise! Now--when can you expect me?

That just reminded me of a radio comedy show we used to have a few years back called 'I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again'. John Cleese and a number of other comedy regulars were in it. One of their Christmas episodes was a take on Alice in Wonderland, starting with Alice meeting the author Lewis Carroll, who had a reputation for liking little girls (dirty man!). Their meeting conversation went something like:

'Hello. little girl (heh, heh, heh), What's your name?'
'My name's Alice, sir. What's your name?'
'My name's Lewis, I'm an author. Do you like stories?'
'Oh, yes, I DO!'
'Would you like me to tell you a story, then? (heh, heh).
'Ooooh, Yeees, Pleeease, I love stories. I'd do anything for a story...'
'Ohhh, too much, too much...! Well then, I'll tell you one... But first, tell me, are you a good little girl?'
'Ooooh Yeees sir - I don't think you'll be disappointed...'
'Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhh....!'

Well they say English humour is an acquired taste - probably a bit a like lime chocolates!! BTW I'd like to send you some orange chocolates, but while I've been writing this, they, umm, seem to have all sort of.... gone!

Don't fret, none of that pouting bottom lip thing is necessary - I'll have some more by the time you get here...
