In Which Nicki Attempts To Discover What Could Possibly Have Become Of Beep...
I have realized that a whole year has passed since Beep came to visit the Gwynn-Jones Household here in the UK, and as a concerned parent it has come to my attention the we have seen neither hide nor hair of him since he went to see Jules in Missouri...could he be lost and all-alone in the vast prairies of the Mid-West? Could he have taken an extended road trip back to Miami and ended up in Mumbai? (Well, it is hot and humid there too - I think...) Or could he have jumped into the Magic Pond and entered a strange and wonderful Parallel Universe from where no postcards can be sent? (It should be noted that during his visit he became an avid fan of C. S. Lewis's Narnia books, and he especially enjoyed 'The Magician's Nephew'...)
You know Nicki...you are correct. I'm 99% sure Jules isn't holding him hostage (no ranson demands!) (sorry Jules!) I was wondering if Tanzania was on the agenda....meet the relatives!
Roman, you could well be right, except that I'm pretty sure that Beep would never voluntantarily rough-it - I got the distinct impression that he's more Taj Mahal than tent...
...with apologies to newer members who will have no idea what we are talking about...:eek::D
Is he going to go skiing? He will need a bobble hat - if I remember rightly he borrowed my brother-in-law's West Ham United (Premier League soccer team!) hat...let me know if Beep would like one to wear in Yellowstone!!
