Hi Steve,
Thanks very much for your e-mail. I always
love hearing from you. At the moment I am studying
really hard. I'm sitting my exams next week.
My lessons start at 8:30. After school, I go to my
part-time job. I am working in a library for the next
few months. Tonight I am meeting my friends.
Anyway, I'd better finish here. Write again soon.

We now attempt to shed light on why they couldn’t put Humpty together again, the tax implications surrounding that Baa Baa Black Sheep, and suggestions as to why ‘when the boys came out to play’, Georgie Porgie ran away. And in addition, why after visiting Gloucester, Doctor Foster never went there again; the tragic love story surrounding that most famous Somerset couple Jack and Jill, as well as suggesting reasons why the weasel goes ‘pop’!
