I have noticed the sparkling improvements to the ship 
I have just called in to let you know that if you require any thing in the way sewing, let me know!

Good day, Mr Plato..
... Well, such elegance here..
..quite an amazing achievement..
One of the cabin boys tells me they spotted you dragging my supinate and gibbering frame across the foredeck late last night. 
I do hope that my antics of yester-eve were not too disturbing. 'fraid I can't remember what they actually were 
Anyway, In order to thank you for your thoughtfulness, I thought I would present you with this..
*presents complex item of silverware*
It is an squeezing device, specially made by Messrs Protagoras & Meno, suppliers by appointment to her majesty.
May it present you with many happy days of
And thanks, once again.
