Dear American Cousins,
My, you’re looking well. I love that sweater: it really brings out the colour in your eyes. You hair? It’s wonderful, really suits the shape of your face. Your vacation photographs? You bet I want to see them - I’ll weep with gratitude. Of course I’ll walk the dog for you: isn’t he adorable. No problem at all.
Me? Oh I don’t want anything. Not really. No nothing. No, it’s fine.
I know what I was going to mention to you (you’ll love this). Well, you know that I am a BIG fan of the works of that fine American composer Stephen Sondheim? The man whose work speaks to my head, heart and soul. You also know that I’ve become an admirer of that fine American actor Raul Esparza; he’s rather splendid isn’t he. Did you know that Esparza appeared in Sondheim’s “Company” on Broadway? I have the CD and I have really enjoyed the clips on YouTube. Just imagine one of my favourite artists appearing in one of my favourite shows.
Well, I understand that PBS is broadcasting the show sometime in February. Could you suggest anyone who could record this show onto DVD for me? I’ll pay for the DVD and the postage.
If you know anyone who can help please PM me. I’d be hugely grateful.
Thanks awfully
Rob
PS: Did I tell you I liked your hair?
