To my dear, dear friend, Polly,

How are you, Dah-ling! It's been so long since we've been in touch. Long, long before The Bedford qualified in herding, which was this weekend.

Last I heard part of your brood has to leave the country...I'm so sorry, Dah-ling! Now, now, these things happen and let's not allow these pesky little disgraces incidents spoil our warm, loving relationship. You can contact me anytime through my close male relative, The Bedford, who qualified this weekend.

I believe one should communicate with all strata of society, whether they are mothers to offspring forced out of the country or, say, a close female relative to high born paragons who qualified in herding. So do write and let me know how your spawn are faring. I'm sure most of them will be permitted to stay here.

Oh, did I mention that The Bedford qualified in herding this weekend? He came in first. We're related, you know.

Licks and Kisses,

The Zsa Zsa
