But HE has already been knighted ...twas by democratic election ....at a cermony where .....each of the knights blew a reed whistle...and then laid down their pipes and swore allegience to the Elhandosomo Abu supremo EL JBeatemall...

I made the tea, painted my nails and blew bubbles........twas beautiful.....




But hey ....you can go and get the sword anyway .... You will need to attach a trailer to your car.....it is rather heavy...

Where was I when all this pomp and ceremony was taking place? I didn't think the politburo went in for all that bourgeois fancy schmancy carry on

Anyhow, I will beg/steal/borrow an implement when I land in Amsterdam, sounds like I'd be stung for excess baggage otherwise

This trip is getting intrestinger and intrestinger.......


PS ....it was not fancy smancy ....it took place under the trees ...with the sun glinting though the leaves ..creating ripples on the Elsupremo's wavy hair

I made the tea on a fire ...built with sandlewood...

The temple teachers all attended ...as observers ....dressed in white...

Your diagnosis is correct my dear Watson ....Been doing my usual " how many maltesers can u fit in in one go" game ... I find it shakes the sub conscious forgotten memories....


I am really sorry you were not invited to the ceromony ...but I did not want a rival queen or nail painter attending....


Jimio El Bravio outdid himself.... I felt the other comrade knights could have put in more effort ...but I think they were a bit envious.....

You looked very nice in your outfit...I still remember your speech well ...the tree twigs shook with emotion... you are indeed the Elsupremo Elgeneralio ElTommio....
