The Kerb-Crawling of Ms. Alice Zimmer

Dearest Chlamydia

I’m afraid that Ms. Zimmer still harks back to days when the purpose of our group was quite different. If you remember the cat was originally an absent-minded “part payment”, the poor thing. But what with all the recent problems its predicament has not been at the forefront of my mind.

As for Miss Mountjoy, I will confess that a number of my ladies have complained that when they come in close proximity to her for any period of time they need to take iron tablets to counteract the anaemia.

All things considered I think the poor old thing should be put down if nothing else can be done. (The cat that is, not Miss Mountjoy!)

Yours, as ever

  • Negotiated Congress

    Ms Zimmer has offered us some advice regarding negotiated congress which, although she is amply qualified, we have had to decline since her qualifications expired some time ago. (Indeed, due to the Trade Descriptions Act she now has to offer the promise of “a horrible time”.)
