The Flatpack Observer, new chapter

I regret that Mr Smugson got in first and pointed out a number of glaring errors and alternative directions for the protagonist, which were far superior to my own ideas, What a bastard, eh? As a consequence I'm re-writing some bits and will get back to you in due course.
Regards
Cushions

Ah yes; that. Sorry.
In my defence, the suggestions were merely tiny adjustments. Our hero, Edward, is now an apprentice wizard in a dystopian future inhabited only by implausibly attractive teenagers, and he must find a magic ring in order to prevent the rise of an ancient race of vampire-werewolf mutants who have a penchant for softcore bondage / S&M. Oh, and there's Lego, too, probably.

Rob Clogson should write our all our Clog books. Just send him a 50 word summary and let him get on with it. Things would work out a lot better that way and think of all the free time we'd have. We could all go on a golfing holiday in Florida. I have some golf sticks in the garage, a few of them are a bit bent where they've been adapted to hit balls around trees.
When's Rob's book coming out? Must be soon.

'Spring' is all they've told me. I'm supposed to stay quiet till then - which doesn't come naturally.
Anyway, demand a copy of the Doug Punitive section from Mr C. Just a few paragraphs but very funny.

I demand a copy of the Doug Punitive bit, Mr Curtains.

Dear Mr Cushions,
Just a note to say I looked at the revised final section of this chapter and thought it splendid. I've emailed you some notes.

Yes, thank you. I have forwarded the chapter to Mr Dook, who takes the view that it's too long and recommends that I scrap the book and take up pressing wild mushrooms as an alternative hobby.

Just a word of caution: if he specifies exactly which type of mushrooms and then encourages you to send them to him, say no. I once got caught up in one of his little scams and quickly developed an unwanted familiarity with section 21 of the Drugs Act 2005. He's devious, that Duke. I dread to think what he gets up to on that island...

It's been a while since I insulted you with a shiny new chapter of The Flatpack Observer. Well, I've been quite well behaved during 2018, so I think it's time to heave some kak at you.
The new chapter 'Plie on the pie', ( I should explain that 'Plie' is the french expression for a ballet pose and should have an accent over the 'e'. There may be a way of inserting this on the Godroods site but I am yet to discover it).
The chapter is long. Several times I have taken a chainsaw to it and mercilessly removed limbs, but then I feel sorry for the rejected portion and sew it back in.
If you have previously read The Flatpack Observer and wish to revisit your suffering, kindly let me know. If you have never read any of the book and would like some material to line the cat's litter tray, let me know.
Fond regards to all
Savage
