The War of Fingers is drawing to a close. We have been more than lucky; although, of course, victory was always assured with the Great JF on our side. The long, long years of Risk training have paid off on the true battlefield of knowledge, wisdom and fingers. Diplomacy was never an option.
Joe has been rather quiet of late. Be thankful I know just how he thinks. And so - the news.
- Gertrude has had her baby, she's named it Eric. I say it wisely.
- Frank has got married, but he won't say to whom. Our spies are checking that he hasn't broken Code 222222222232h. Again. Cheetahs just DO NOT fit in.
- The vineyard in the Commune is back up and running, although the pest trouble continues. We are in talks with R&D to develop Krankiecides.
- The terrible news (hopefully rumour) was spread that Sgt Bilko (known in spy circles as Mr. Phil Eduardo Silvers) is dead. We hope he gets well soon.
