Brava, brava!! I'm delighted with each of your 'hews, and the two pronunciations. I wish I could offer more, how about kisses and nanas?

Ogg, I would love to read what you have of this.

as ever, Perdita

Dear Venetian Lady,

I regret that I must decline to reveal the story as it now is.

It might become something worthwhile later on. As it is now it is merely an incomplete exercise in literary semantics and doesn't work. A Zeugma or two is tolerable. A whole Zoo of Zeugmas is not.

The Zeugmas need culling and discretion.

Yours, Og (And thats no vagary?)

Dear Ogg,

M'likes our alliterations, yours more refined than mine. I would love to attend an event with you, if only to be announced with 'The Venerable Oggbashan and the Venetian Lady'.

A 'Zoo of Zeugmas' might prove a fit title for your culling, eh?
