Let's see how you do in the forthcoming battle of wits with Lord
Mixdemort.

Then you can meet me outside Gringott's Bank and we can discuss things
further. Still haven't sorted your two-heads/sweatshirt problem yet,
though.

Sounds iffy. On other hand my e-mail brings me news each week of multiple
lottery winnings. I am also much sought after for arranging large
transfers of money from Nigeria. They also advise using the Gringott's
Bank. I am hot on a Leprechaun gold deal now.

Leprechaun deal? I sometimes wonder about that Professor Breathnach
and his Celtic Mysticism classes.

Have you ever thought of cashing-in on your Noble status? Here in the UK a
lot of Aristocrats such as yourself have allowed themselves to become
Directors of Companies which are less than scrupulous in their observance of
legal niceties. The Aristos get big bucks for this, and I am sure that
payment could be in cash if wanted. "The Earl and Countless of Evleth" would
be a sure-fire winner here.

I am the "Earl du 6eme Arrondissement". I know of no others and if they are
I will reduce it to the "Earl de la rue J.F. Gerbillon". In fact, in the
neighbor I am known as "Monsieur Gaston".

Actually my middle name, Mansfield, has produced rumors as to my status.
But being modest by nature I claim nothing. I am counting my
my gold deal to make me famous.

There is a Scottish tune dedicated to you: "The Earl of Mansfield"
is about 200 years old and still widely played for Scottish dancing.

Not forgetting his central European relative, the Herzog von
Mixendorf-Sauerei.

Got it and heard it at

My heart swells with pride. It came at a good time since the
gold came and disappeared.

I am not "countless". I am not even "accountless", having real bank
accounts here and there.
