VO-BB - 20 YEARS OLD!

They're creatives so one has to write in a creative manner .....

Hi Deb,

September is now but a bitter memory and the winds of October are upon us like a windy thing. The Canada Geese fill the sky above Portgordon with cries of "HONK!", "Are you sure this is Toronto" and the females cry even louder "FOR GOD SAKE GERALD JUST LAND AND ASK SOMEONE!!!" The creative flow and demands of Autumn and winter will stretch us all, yet we will rise like noble Picts, Celts and Take That fans to vanquish our foes. We have questions, we all have questions.

Here for you today a very simple puzzle. How do I send an invoice without a purchase order number?

Best regards

PB
Apprentice Pauper

Philip,

Great fun. But, those geese are seriously lost. Best point them to the West and wish them well.

I feel a plagiaristic act coming on. Damn, that was fun.

Brilliant!
Perhaps they'd also respond to a song:
to the tune of "Surrey with the fringe on top"
Picts and Celts and geese over thistle
Cauld wind pipes dear not pennywhistle
Accounting's the cause of this short epistle
In the morning

Send a P.O. number and I'll say "slainte"
Before the geese head west to summer in Toront-cha
If it arrives 'fore Samhain I will not haunt ya
Just a warning
