SO I am happy to reply:

Good Afternoon.

It was so nice to hear from you again, I just have a few small questions before I authorise the release of the $81 to your account.

1. You appear to start calling me your "dear" I hope for both of our sakes this is an error in the typing, as I am not your dear, but at the moment your business contact. If my partner was to see someone calling me "dear" in an email I would be unlikely to be alive to process the money.

2. What doller are you requiring the funds. I currently have accounts around the world with funs in US dollar, Hong Kong dollar, Australian doller and Western Somoan dollar? I can send a fund in any of those, or in Euro's, Pounds or Yen.

I await your swift reply

William

I suspect I will get caught out this time!

These doctors in the UK sure know how to pansy us blokes up!

I just got back from a routine check-up, where the doc pointed out that where I worked in the casino's for 5 years as a dealer, I am at risk of arthritis in the fingers. Yes they crack quite often so apprently thats a sign of a possible problem.

Did not mention much about the fact I am 6 stone (approx 40 kilos) overweight apart from to watch what I eat..... suuuuuure I watch EVERY bar of chocolate pass my lips and every beer glass empty!

SO anyway back to the fingers.... my doctor recommends doing something intricate to keep my fingers nimble.... she recommends NEEDLEWORK!!! AARRRRGGGHHHHHH.
