The Death of Ms. Alice Zimmer
To: Marjorie Bathsheba Catheter Jodrell-Bentley
Subject: Our Condolences
We are sorry to hear of the demise of your member and wholeheartedly offer our condolences. (I fear Miss Twigham will have to defer on this matter, however, since she is currently being held hostage by the Celts.)
Indeed, on a personal level one cannot help but recall what a full, vibrant and insistent role Ms. Zimmer has had in a variety of matters pertaining to both our organisations.
I must say, however, that some of our members will not be able to attend since, I understand, even in death the various charms and hexes used by Ms. Zimmer will prevent them coming within 1 square mile of her body.
This is a particular shame since being rubbed down in goose grease and performing ritualistic acts in relation to the deceased has turned out to be a rather popular idea amongst these members. (One suspects this is precisely why the spells were cast in the first place).
On a more pleasant note, Moorgate is as enchanting as ever. One or two of our younger members caused a stir the other day when walking past a building site and discovering that the famed Thespian Patrick McGoohan was offering his services to the craftsmen.
Sadly my investigations were swiftly concluded, with the result that a disappointed crowd of groupies were swiftly informed what “Danger Man Working Overhead” truly indicated.
Yours,
Sarah-Jane Chlamydia Rossington-Smythe.
