I wouldn't dream of carrying on any such correspondence from here, because of course the postman knows everybody and I wouldn't want my neighbours to find out that I am dabbling in any such nefarious activities. I mean, if I were merely a dope-addict, escaped convict, sex-pervert, or Russian spy, it wouldn't be so bad, but...
