Practical jokes

Practical Jokes - ha!, the term joke is used loosely - are a terrible evil and should never have been unleashed upon the world when Pandora opened her stupid box. Tottie, who I consider a friend, just played a horrible joke on me. She posted a horrible, frightening picture of herself on Mango's website with her ears chopped off, sitting on a blood soaked chair. And she was smiling! Anyway, I can't tell you how upset I was, and angry at whoever was to blame. Thankfully, Tottie admitted to her joke and posted a picture of herself and Mango a short time later. It was a very mean thing to do. I still haven't recovered. Tomorrow I will post a pictorial post of the gamut of emotions I went through.

All by myself

Mango and Tottie went back to Dublin today.

Rejection

Top marks go to Sarah Manson Literary Agent for her prompt and polite rejection of Leaf : -

'Thank you for your submission which was so beautifully presented.'

Now, that wasn't hard to say, was it? If every rejection letter was so thoughtful, it would take the sting out of hearing 'NO' all the time.

Thanks Sarah for putting in the extra effort to be thoughtful.
