Now, how do you plan to pay me?

And if it's Eton Mess - so help you.

Date: 2012-02-20 04:28 pm (UTC)That depends entirely on whether I choose to translocate you or not.

Date: 2012-02-20 07:28 pm (UTC)I may be late tonight. Perhaps by several hours... I can only apologise. I'll flay a SpAd for you.
