Dear Bills re quiet time
I just assumed I'd been chucked off the group Still - if at first you don't succeed................ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I did have a thought about a couple of recent mails - one about 'cracking the whip' the other about 'involving artists' How about some kind of Holywood script to promote metrication? Maybe it could start out with all the Native Americans using SI, and the Nasty Brits turning up to make them use imperial? We could have Silvester Stilone as a kind of Zoro/Lone Ranger guy with a black mask and a really big whip destroying truck loads of red coates single handed. (Maybe we should give him a kind of Davy Crockett hat to save any confusion?) And then maybe cut to King George dribbling and raving in some nut house - whilst we could have his cute little english rose mistress - (Kyle Minogue? - the accents perfect) - who has secret trysts with Stilone at his log cabin. I think at this point we need some kind of catchy tune for Minogue that plugs metrification. Disco would be best - (we do not want to overburden the audience with too much history.) Thoughts anybody? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just joking folks!
