Hi!
Alan Ridbridge has asked me to check that Mr Thorson knows about the meeting at 3pm today.
                                             Tom Jameson
PS. Are you the one with the shoulder length hair, wearing the black & yellow dress today?
Email from Mandirpa@Blackzzipz.co.uk   to  Tomj Finance@Blackzzipz.co.uk
Yes, Mr Thorson has remembered the meeting and will be there.
               Lucy  Mandeville (PA to Adam Thorson)
PS. Yes, I am the one you thought I was.  Are you the newish one in accounts?  The one with the sunburnt forehead and nose?

Email fromTomj Finance@Blackzzipz.co.uk   to   Mandirpa@Blackzzipz.co.uk
Yes, that’s me.  Forgot my sun-block when playing cricket at the weekend?  Would you like to hear about it?  Where’s a good place round here for a post-work drink?

Silly man!  Was it a good innings, or were you just at third man for a long time? (I have 3 brothers who play, and I open the batting for a woman’s team)
Tell me about it in the Masons, at 5. It’s on the river, 5 mins walk down the hill.

Lucy darling, I’m so sorry.  I felt if I said it to you face to face, and saw your reaction, I might say I wouldn’t go, and let the team, and the lads, and myself, down.  I’m glad I didn’t, and the tour is great (first match tomorrow), But I’ve obviously cocked things up.  Sorry.  Sorry. (And I miss you like hell!)

Idiot!  Fool!  I understand about tours, and you should know me well enough to have known that and trusted me It’s an honour to be selected, especially when you’re so new to the team.  My new mobile number is …..
