Madam, I am surprised that you doubt the veracity of my claim to be a lord. I shall furnish proof in the near future by taking a selfie on the terrace. I will respond to the rest of your scurrilous epistle in due course, but in the meantime permit me to recommend my seminal work, Anatomy for Beginners.
Delightful, as usual, Rebecca. I love listening in on your conversations! I especially like the seagull story this week and a view of your clever crossword. . As far as your correspondent's credentials go ... I, too, have serious reservations about his medical qualifications and have yet to find his name listed in Burke's Peerage... Albeit, a very smart and funny man.
Typical. I declined to have my name listed in Burke's peerage: too common. As for my medical qualifications, you do realise that my name is Dr Tel, right? Yes, definitely smart, modest too. Thanks for recognising my genius
Thanks so much, Jen! There are soooooo many I could have included - I might have to do a follow-up post when Friday 13th next shows up on the calendar....! 🤣
I didn't get to see hardly any of the coronation as I was working that day. I probably saw 5 minutes. Oh well.
What amazes me about your letters back and forth is that you come up with so much to talk about. I thought you'd do a few and then that would be the end of it. I'm impressed! I wonder how long you can keep going?

🤣 I'm not sure that tome you name will help to clarify your baffling medical claims, Terry! I'll have a rifle through next time I'm at the library.
Scurrilous? Really? And to think I nearly offered to send a cake with a file in it so that you could make your escape from the Tower.....
A file will not be necessary, but thanks anyway. As for that book, I did the research myself, so there 😛
🤣

Thanks so much, Sharron! 🤣 And gosh, don't tell Terry that - you'll only encourage him! 😉 I gather proof of lordship will be forthcoming... 🤔
Indeed. And I will be wearing a shirt and tie.

Delightfully funny and entertaining - thank you! 😊
I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Rosy - thank you! 😊
Fascinating to know that Steven King does that much mental math when reading!
Yes - amazing! I wonder if he uses the same rule with his writing, though? 🤔
I looked forward to reading this post when I had a quiet moment. Laugh out loud chuckles. You are a wordsmith extraordinaire. Still smiling.
Oh, that's so kind of you, Mary. Thank you! 😊
Wonderful letter! Loved the superstition breakdown. ❤️

Edited to say: I've just checked! October.
