I'm reading this via the gift of wet string and stone cups chiselled out by a wizened old bloke in a loincloth who's also chiselling the letters in this email on stone tablets. Naturally he's using 8 bits of stone to make the tablets, and he sometimes has to stop work to clear cockroaches from his workplace when they get in the way. For temporary storage he's using a grid of fake comedy breasts laid out in a 32x32 pattern which he's calling 'cor! Mammary' This means nothing to me. Nor does the percussion instruments he has full of bits and the chunks he's removed from fruit using his mouth that he's calling 'drums storage'. I'm writing this on papyrus which will be read by a specially trained cuckoo and left as 'little messages' in the stone cups, these little messages can be thought of as 'c-pu' for simplicity. His wife will etch translations of the c-pu on her own bits of sticky-backed plastic strips we shall call 'maggie-tape' since her name is Margaret.
