I give Dmitri permission to use my email privately also
he will also come up with a more circumspect way of phrasing that, being better at words than me

Nice paper stash. I do love a bit of stationery.
Graph paper? Help! I've been slacking. . (rootles for algebra workbook)
The legendary Glastonbury graphs were sent to the Post editor by two researchers last seen in Somerset. These graphs are very insightful, and tell us many things about many things.

Sorry to be late, Peanut, all done.
I was coping with pictures of baobab trees, long story. And one of the Parthenon in Nashville.
Ah, those wondrous graphs...
Last night, we watched Dali's 'Impressions de l'haute Mongolie', which I've probably just spelled wrong. Fabulous film, but I'll bet CC already knows it.
If you don't, it's available for free online...
Dali in search of giant mushrooms, using a pen he stole from the hotel. In French, with subtitles. The subtitles are in a strange language which I can read, but not identify...I think it is Catalan, or maybe Andalusian...sort of like Romanian from another planet...
His moustache is a fierce artistic statement, don't you think? When the pen appeared in outer space, I was hooked. Also, Dali claims Vermeer hid this map in one of his paintings, you see, and the Princess had these camels, and...
Well, just go and watch. Let me know if you need the url.

Thankyouverymuch my friend for sorting us out. .
baobab trees? It's an interesting life, the life of an Editor. Are they the trees that look like they are growing upside down?
What? No! I have never heard of this Dali film, I am just soo out of touch these days. If it's as good as your wonderful write up, I shall fly to Dali heaven when I see it, where all the clocks show a bendy ten to three, and is there honey still for tea?
Ah yes, the moustache. Dali's look was kind of interesting. heheh. I think I would be shy if I had to meet him for tea. .

Glad you two are on the planning road...

Safe and free.
And yes, on 8 October, Willem will tell you all about the fascinating baobab tree, in a two-part Phyto-Philes special...profusely illustrated. Those are the ones, CC.

Wow, I only go away for a few hours and, when I get back all sorts of things have happened.
Graphs, baobob trees, Dali's moustache and a camel? (is that language Occitan, perhaps?)
As for meeting up, I half expect to bump into cc in the Lanes in Brighton, and have a and
Not sure I'd be very good company , but I'll email Dmitri anyway.

She is very knowledgeable. Occitan? Ah yes, well these poets have the knowledge of many interdimensional languages.
Splendid mvp! Well, me and Peanut got nattering on email, its great. I had to explain that I make as much sense in emails as I do here, Dmitri and Elektra can vouch for that. .
I often think you have walked right past me in Brighton .. I almost stopped a lady the other day, and said s'cuse me are you my friend the poetlady from hootoo. . I should have a t-shirt that reads 'hey mvp, it's me.'
If you ever want that coffee and cake, and also we will see what Peanut comes up with .... ask Dmitri for my email address, I give him permission to give it to you, and be great to hear from you. Do you ever go to hootoo meets in London?
Now, back to my interdimensional travel piece, which I am about to make into a paper boat and drop into the stream of consciousness, with a promise never to return. .
