1. Mr Grumble.
If people insist on wearing Mr Men t-shirts, could they please pick ones that match the wearer's personality?
I had a Mr Happy scowl at me on the bus, a Mr Lazy playing football with his son, and a Mr Perfect wearing a Burberry baseball cap.
Now I assume those who phone my office all wear Mr Clever shirts.
Arrant Nerd Boxes Yodeller.
Maybe 'Ziners should start wearing Mr Nonsense shirts then.

2. Moonlighting.
A weird thing I've noticed is that looking like Darryl out of Coronation Street is no hazard to working in a supermarket. I've noticed a bloke in Sainsbury's who looks like him and someone who looks like him in Tesco. There are two more Darryl lookalikes. I will tell you about them tomorrow. Prepare to be shocked and amazed.
Smashed Strawberry, Hector's House.
This ain't Showbiz Spy, you know.

3. Page Three.
Like a fine cheddar.
Well, now that I finally have a proper job, I have begun to mature. As such, I feel I am now far too mature to write into 'Zine any more. I read the Daily Mail now for crying out loud! I watch informative programming! You will never hear from me ever again. I hope you eventually grow up too. Goodbye.

It's never stopped The Brig has it?

Dare not speak its name.
I can't do it! I need you WLW! I haven't matured! I have to wear a suit to work, yet I need to draw kitchen utensils on my chest to feel like myself! I haven't grown up, I still lick my neighbour's sundial before going to bed! I'm sorry WLW. Please forgive me. I'll buy you a Daily Mail, I only look at it for possible pictures of kitchen utensils. I love utensils.

I knew someone had been interfering with my melon baller...

4. Soppy summer friends poem.
Talking about clown schools,
They would be so cool!,
We bought some gingerbread,
(and muffins) and you said,
The clouds look like hippos,
Blurred beautiful across the sky,
Shy fun happiness,
Into the wind we sigh.
The Soul Cake Duck.
Breathtaking. Now I'm off to annotate my JP poster collection.

5. Pirates.
Avast me hearties, it is International Talk Like A Pirate Day today you scurvy sea dogs (if this letter is printed after Friday then International Talk Like A Pirate Day has passed). To honour this holiday, we should make Myleene Klass and Billy Murray walk the plank and have a mutiny at Zine towers and overthrow WLW for the day.
Earnie's Rubber Duck.
I'm always on the hunt for some booty.
