  Dearest Elizabeth

  I have just received your charming script, barely two days from whence you sent it; truly a first class postal service.  For that we can only thank Jean-Joseph Merlin for inventing the roller-shoe, and the one who's name escapes me now, who said "Get yer skates on lad, we haven't got all day y'know".  Without these truly remarkable people your letter would have taken many more days, even weeks, to arrive into my hands.

  I have had word that my gift to you has not arrived.  It so grieves me, beyond comprehension.  A first class letter can arrive in a mere 2 days, yet a small, light parcel containing a pair of lovely pink wooly knickers takes what seems like an eternity.  I shall immediately mount my trusted steed and ride down to the postal service where I shall conduct my own investigation into the matter with the utmost urgency.

  It is with much pleasure that I find you have the B.T. Broad and Band saga in hand; I can bear it no longer not seeing your green light on my list of friends.  We can only hope that your local grocer, Tesco, can get you connected as fast as possible so that we may once again be reunited and indulge in the endearing walks together along the fairways of St Andrew, Kiawah, Bethpage and Oakmont.

  Until then my dear, sweet, Lizzie, I can only sit and mourn our separation.

  Yours
  Mio

  Aye perhaps some lost soul from Scotlands past could quote a wee bit of Rabby Burns.

  rabby burns - you asked for it

  wee curin timourous beasty,

  oh what a panic in thy breasty ,

  you needny go away so hasty ,

  with bickerin brackle .

  translation follows ,

  small timid beast ,

  with a panic in your heart,

  you need not run away so quickly ,

  in a bad mood .

  He is talking to a mouse by the way .

  My vehicle was vernacular,and moreover transcribed from 4 years of morte d'bloody arthur,which I admit was middle English,but my premise was altogether contemporary in its origin and owes much to transliteration based on transcription from ancient gaellic through Middle English to Lizzesque,but that said,I do recognise your dichotomy and would weep bitter tears were it not brought to attentive action.

  will it nae be yon barlinnie kess fae fowk noat scots?
