You seem to have your sequel sussed, Prue, so why not go for it? When getting permission, tell 'em you're hot on marketing and remind 'em that the Eckett series will doubtless renew interest in Arthur's originals. And please put me down for a hardback. There — advanced sales already! Watch out, Harry Potter...
MIKE! Glad you're on board again, Fielders. It was good to see you clambering back over the Tarboard bow. You're in safe hands now — the Commodore's taught us all we know about boat-handling. Just remind me again...what's the name of that stick you jiggle at the back
of the boat to turn right or left?
Did anyone hear on the Home Service about the new rescue technique for stick-in-the-muds at that splatcherland Montrose Basin, Scotland? They come out to you on some kind of surfboard, put pipes down your legs, then squirt compressed air to break the suction and pull you out. Wonderful stuff...sounds like a Goons episode, Min!
And, Peter H...a few years back I went into Bentons the tobacconists in Manchester and found the staff in a state of excitement because Jeremy Brett had just been in to choose a churchwarden for the Granada TV series.
