: : : : Hi, FT...Sassy Soothsayer, here! Thanks for keeping us posted about the predicklement ET seems to have gotten herself into. Of course, being a Soothsayer, an' all, I already knew ALLLL about this mess, but the rest of Mohicanland enjoys hearing it from another in the Trade, as it were. Now, what I want to know is, IF the Aussies decide to take you up on your offer & KEEP the English Trader in captivity, at least through the Gathering, what kind of special deals do you promise to those of us who will be left with only YOUR goods to barter over? Will we get the best prices ever? Will we have the finest selection in the world?? Will you be able to supply those items that would have been brought by ET, had she not gotten herself in this terrible fix Down Under?? Inquiring minds and red-hot pocketbooks want to know!!

: : : : And Frenchie...(IF you really ARE French, that is...and after listening to your dulcet tones today, I have SERIOUS doubts in that regard!!)...above all else, no matter how long it takes, no matter how FAR, and even no matter what OCCURS, you're STRONG, you SURVIVE, and DO NOT SUBMIT (to customs, and/or the ABC)...BRING the PEACH BRANDY!!!

: : : : Yours Most Enchantingly,
: : : : Sassy Soothsayer
: : : : Motto: Still Sassily Saying Sooths!
: : : ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~>
: : : Most Enchanting Soothsayer,
: : : I do not mind one bit passing on any good,um...I mean serious news on the whereabouts of the English Trader. I DO have only her BEST interest in mind.
: : : As for the trade deals, being the buisnessman that I am, it will all depend on that weekend and if ET is there or not. If I am the only trader, I can assure you that they will get only the BEST deals in the area. (hehehe)
: : : And the Peach Brandy. It will be kept under lock and key till the last of June. I will serve no brandy before that time. :)

: : : French Trader

: : _____

: : Ahh,
: : I bet the French Trader has set in motion with the locals in question to send our ET on a Walkabout to delay her returning to the Gathering.....a logical move from the French....

: : Jo
: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

: Jo, mon petit chou,
: Do I detect a bit of French blood there? Great minds think alike, no?

: French Trader
: :)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~>

Be careful Sassy, else that wily French Trader will have finagled your purple paisley carpet right out from under you. They are tricky folks and smooth talkers.

I for one would feel more comfortable trading with FT if his Huron buddies weren't standing behind us fingering their tomahawks as we bartered. Oh, for the return of the English trader!!! Where can she be?
