Dear Mills (if that is your real name, which would be like employing a guy called Tussers in the dairy department… )

I must concur that this is absolutely an “unbeatable offer” on the Reflex A4 Paper at R149.99. I must however at this time express my disappointment at your having only sent this to me on Tuesday this week.

I work in a remote part of the country, the splendid wooded pine forests of sub-tropical Limpopo and, as irony “wood” have it – I sort of feed your industry.

Yes Mills, I am a lumberjack ( I know it conjures up images from those Big-T burger ads from the 80’s!)

I find slaying 3 year old saplings with my trusty Stihl chainsaw extremely fulfilling.

Anyway, despite your “unbeatable offer”, I’d like to request a trade discount of say…40% on that? Reason being (and we can keep this between us) my dad is a British National and was in the british music scene for many years, dad co-wrote Duran Duran’s 1984 floor killer “The Reflex” back in the day and very soon after took a patent out on the word “Reflex” prohibiting use and/or association of this word on all future developed products. Long story short, you’re in copyright violation here, but we can arrange something…(nudge nudge, wink wink…)




Please get back to me, my lunch break’s over and boy, when a tree falls in the forest – it makes a dandy of a racket! So much for that cliché!

Bluegum greetings

Allen
