Dear Sarah & Melissa,
Well what a horrible time we’ve had. We’ve been trying to get a message to you surreptitiously, but it took an escape the size that even Steve McQueen has never known to find freedom once more.
It all began at a quite little barbeque where as you can see on the table, we were even so kind to provide Tim Tams to this shingdig.

My my Miss American Pie (on the plate next to us), what a jolly time we have had. Such culinary delights we have never known. So much faux versions of real food. We could feel the carbs sliding onto our thighs.
But then we were forced into the kitchen and made to work our little plastic arses off.

We scrubbed and we cleaned on plates and dishes and surfaces that we think have never known scrubbing or cleaning before.
But the worse was yet to come. Next was the laundry. Piles and piles of laundry. We were swamped with unatural man made fibres. So many tubes of dermatological cream had to be applied to stop the rash. At one point Edgey was almost lost in a rather buxom brassiere! He was almost lost forever in there.

The nights were the hardest. So many bedtime stories by J.K. Rowling and Stephanie Meyer had to be read. A man should never have to see the things we have that lie between these sheets, like week old twinkies, feral dog hair, etc …

Fortunately we were rescued by a young goddess who offered to smuggle us back across the New Jersey border, over the turnpike, and back into the metropolis of New York, while she distracted our obductors with a rather rockin’ Mylie Cyrus impersonation.

We have had our plastic tested for every known disease under the sun, and somehow the dematological cream warded off even the swine flu.
Must go rest. Losing strength just writing this.
Yours in convelescence,
J.S. and Edgey
