WHAT IS GOING ON?????

Dear Mr Loukas.

Please excuse my delay in replying to you, snow has brought chaos to North Wales. On the way home from the Dog and Bucket yesterday I became stuck in a traffic jam on the A683. It was caused by a jack-knifed lorry, rather ironically carrying a load of Welsh Whelks. The extent of the snow made tuning around impossible so after several hours stuck in the Range Rover I was finally rescued by a helicopter. It was fortunate that I had a spare bottle of gin in the car else who knows what might have happened.

Anyway, to the matter in hand. I am deeply puzzled and concerned by the sudden appearance of your sister in-law as a party to this deal. Why has she been brought in? This started off as a straightforward and simple to understand deal, I was about to pay the money to the shipping company when you suddenly decided that we had to waste time with written contracts. Was that simply a delaying tactic until you could get your sister-in-law on board? And what about that contract? Surely if there is now a THIRD person involved it will need to be rewritten?

I won’t say that I blame drink for your erratic behaviour Mr Loukas, but I do have my suspicions.

WHAT IS GOING ON?????

If yes, make sure that you add the balance to complete the total so that they can file our package and deliver to you.

I am counting in you, please do do the needful to complete the balance and let me know.

Please get back to me as soon as you sober up

Mr Loukas,

I’m sorry to say that your outburst does nothing to allay my suspicions. My sister Ivy was a great one for profanity when under the influence of gin and look what happened to her!

I wasn’t going to mention it, but as you have raised the subject I have to say that I HAD noticed that you had not once enquired about my husband, not so much as a “and how is your husband following the unfortunate incident with the hot air balloon?”. I have always found that a little politeness goes a long way towards lubricating the wheels of business Mr Loukas. As does gin, but only in moderation.

Anyway, I am pleased to say that I have acquired a scanner and after an hour or so reading the manual I have managed to scan the agreement and attach it to this email. I’m sure it’s all second nature to you Mr Loukas, but for an elderly shellfish retailer from North Wales, mastering both the internet and scanning technology is something of which I am quite proud.

Please get back to me as soon as you sober up.

Kind Regards

Ethel Trellis (Mrs.)

Dear Mrs. Ethel,

Please for christ sake, stop insulting me, how can you say that you assumed I have been drinking? Listen to me, this is business and if we are talking in respect to this business stop commenting on needless or undesirable things.

What I need is from you is the signed copy of the agreement, stop commenting about my wife because I have not inquired about your husband neither.

Do what you must do and get me the signed copy of the agreement, I am strong in faith in what I do.

Loukas

I can only assume that you have been drinking

Mr Loukas,

Your recent communications puzzle me greatly. I initially wondered if perhaps it was simply that we were having difficulties communicating in what is not our respective first language, but having re-read your last three emails I can only assume that you have been drinking. My Sister Ivy had a problem with alcohol back in the seventies when North Wales was awash with bootlegged gin. She used to sit in her armchair all day, drinking and making inconsistent and increasingly bizzare demands of anyone who chanced by the front window. I finally put a stop to it with a sharp blow from an empty gin bottle.

Please give serious thought to this matter Mt. Loukas, what must your poor wife think?

Anyway, I have seen a solution to our immediate problem. I shall jump in the Range Rover and drive to our nearest branch of PC World where I assume that someone will be able to both sell me a scanner and explain how to use it. I shall then scan the agreement and send you a copy by email.

Regards

Ethel Trellis (Mrs.)

Dear Mrs. Ethel,

I never meant that you should send both copies these two different ways,all I need from you is a signed copy of the agreement. If you said that you have printed it off and signed a copy then kindly scan and email it to me via email attachment.

Please, withdraw that statement attempting to have a joke at your expense, is that a joke os what? I do not like such words you used, I am a man that be sure of what I does and also try to preserve my interest.

We cannot do this business without having the agreement signed by both parties. These difficult times tries to change ones perspective towards life and give you strength to deal with these times. Life is unpredictable and tough, just when you think you have got a hang of how it all works, it changes.

Just do the needful and send me the signed copy from your side for references.

Loukas

spend some of my emergency cash on a new Range Rover

Dear Mr Loukas

I fear I must have misunderstood your letter. How can I first send you the signed copy BEFORE sending it by surface mail?

I have no means of signing the electronic copy.

I have printed off and signed a paper copy.

As previously discussed, I have no means of scanning the printed and signed document without involving a third party and hence I HAVE NO MEANS OF SENDING THE SIGNED COPY TO YOU OTHER THAN BY SURFACE MAIL.

Really Mr Loukas, are you attempting to have a joke at my expense?

On an entirely unconnected subject, North Wales was today subject to a severe snow storm, the roads were nearly impassable and my lunchtime trip to the Dog and Bucket for a pint of gin nearly had to be called off. Fortunately the local Landrover dealership was open and I was able to spend some of my emergency cash on a new Range Rover. Four wheel drive really does make a difference in the snow. Do you ever get snow in your part of the world Mr. Loukas?

Kind Regards

Ethel

Dear Mrs. Ethel,

Your suggestion of sending the agreement through snail surface mail is good, but before that send me the signed copy first then I will give you my DHL account which you will use in sending the agreement without paying the DHL fee.

I await for the signed copy of the agreement from you.

Loukas
