Good man, Expatrick. You've been field promoted to one-star Dundee. Congratulations. I fear that Quiltman 's cover has been blown. He has failed to report.

Done with ganache my Commander, pity about Quiltman, another good egg gone.

Use the brandy to send him to Valhalla, with a 3 tier burning pyre.

Request personal radio silence, unless emergency interrupt is needed. you have done well, gingerbreadmen. Your sealed orders will arrive tomorrow. Probably. Will we ever hear from Quiltman again, I wonder, or learn of his fate? Perhaps his funeral pyre might not yet be needed.....

British Sponge Time, which is the same as Madeira Slice Time, as you know. Cake Eating Time is the currant time.

TO ALL FIELD AND RAISING AGENTS:

Re Nutek

Nutek is exhibiting odd behaviour. I believe he may be sufferering from Post Traumatic Pie Syndrome. Treat everything he says with great care: report any concerns to Command and believe nothing you hear.

Good man, Expatrick. I knew I had made the right choice - had I made an error I would have had to shed a few tiers.
