Sunday 7.09amThere once was a 47 year old man called Peter, who lived all alone with his wife and three children just beside a few trees in New Zealand. Peter was lonely because although he was kept busy working most of the time to pay for his wife's Trademe purchases, he had no "efriends". Everytime he went onto the internet he was reminded of this with little messages that just caught the corner of his eye. "You don't have any Lulu friends. Find some friends." it said as he uploaded some files. Some people did want to be his friend and kept putting messages through his e-letterbox. " find someone in your area today" they announced and " beautiful sexy girls are waiting to meet you right now" But Peter was a sensible man and had read The Three Little Pigs and Little Red Riding Hood and didn't believe them. Then one day Peter needed another email address. Google had also told him that he needed some friends but they were more helpful. They had given him some invitations to send out to ask people if they would like to be his friend and have an email account as well. Well thought Peter, I don't have any efriends to invite but I do need another email account so why not invite myself? So he did, and he opened up that new account.
And do you know, that very hour he got this message - "Peter Coulter has accepted your invitation to Google Mail and has chosen the brand new address peterssoup@gmail.com. Be one of the first to email Peter at this new Google Mail address--just hit reply and send Peter a message. peterssoup@gmail.com has also been automatically added to your contact list so you can stay in touch with Google Mail." A new friend had found him after all and wanted to talk! Peter replied straight away before checking his new account. Well as soon as he did Peter just stared in amazement, there was a message there as well, two new friends in one day! Peter and his new friends had so much in common that they chatted away for hours. He was so happy, because underneath it all Peter is a man of very little brain and is actually quite easily pleased.
The End.
With apologies to Nicola and also "Little beaver and the echo"

Nicola is very greatful that Peter is a sensible man and works hard to pay for all her Trade Me purchases. But he should remember to be greatful that he is only paying for Trade Me purchases and not purchases down at the Village designer shops, which Nicola pays for herself.
Although someone with a natural inner beauty such as yourself has no need of village designer trinkets to shine out in a crowd.
thanks for the help with the HTML by the way

I really laughed out loud - very funny Peter!
I highly doubt that your world is ever dull. Click here for friends and groups that don't come over to mess up your kitchen and drink your wine! xoxo
