What colour wine? ``Qualla: Shall we try the white for a change? ``Yanan: Okay with me. ***! ``Waitress: Zaa. ``Qualla: Are you coming back to my place tonight for a change, now that we will not be bothered by Kern? ``Yanan: I would love to. ``Qualla: No need to get me drunk, as I would fall asleep! {Ming’s Place ~ 2+ Leila} ``Leila: Fancy going on a short trip on the monorail? ``Ming: Zaa! ``Leila: I have never been on one, but only on the old type which hangs down, in a country called Germany. To me it is their future, and not to waste money on their HS2 train, which they think is high speed and hardly anyone wants. ``Ming: So they waste money on Earth? ``Leila: Absolutely. ``Ming: Anyway, you will like it. --- ``Leila: The next stop up is Ynys Halt, at 880 Km. There is a small community and we could have some lunch there. ``Ming: Absolutely. {Sandalwood Fundus ~ 3} ``Vanna: Are you still interested in the hydropower and canals? ``Tetra: Zaa. ``Vanna: Good. They are now clearing out the canal through the town centre and they will make it deeper. ``Tetra: Brilliant. So are they going to repair the dam? ``Vanna: Zaa! They are also going to build a narrow boat, 16m long, and run regular trips on the canal as a tourist attraction. ``Tetra: Wow, I like it. ``Vanna: I will be bringing the plans back from Earth on the next trip, as it is too big to fit even in our new Saucer. I have also suggested to Qualla that she gets you involved, helping with the project. ``Tetra: Absolutely. ``Vanna: So mail Qualla. [knock-knock] ``Vanna: Quiff. ``Okapi: Vanna, It is nice for you to be home for a change, when you are here and not dashing off! ``Vanna: Zarfs Father, and I will stay for a while, so are you going to prepare the drinks? --- ``Tetra: And some of my home made biscuits! ``Okapi: Zaa, come on down, your mum will be back shortly. --- ``Vanna: Well done Tetra, you have cut down on the sweetness and they are very nice. You can watch the New Saucer landing tomorrow afternoon on the raw feed. ``Tetra: I will. ``Vanna: So father how did I really get on as your daughter to you, as you are a very reserved Being? ``Okapi: That is true, and I know I am not always commutative at times. ``Vanna: How can we learn to bridge this gap, between us? ``Okapi: Now you are putting me on the spot! ``Vanna: I need this all to be sorted out for good, so when my time is up to come home, we can get on better together. ``Okapi: That is nice. The problem is that you are now old enough to lead your own life, so have you any suggestions? ``Vanna: How about weekly meet ups, where we can sit down as a family and play some games? ``Okapi: That will do nicely. ``Tetra: Can I play? ``Okapi: Zaa. I am also changing my job, as I have been promoted, so I will not be so tired. ``Vanna: Wonderful. Can you help me to translate this Press release, quin? [Weekly Press Review , Oligarchy] ``Since the law has been changed, by the Higher Court, the Sheriff has commissioned a further three-year revaluation of older accounts of the Oligarchy which have now been published. This is owing to any potential criminal proceedings. Classic Bank comes under heavy criticism of how so much money could flow between accounts, until suddenly there was a change in their staff. The detailed report was commissioned by Tromp & Co, and financed by the Sheriffs'. They have created a very detailed analysis, which goes much deeper, showing that there is still over a half million Qintars, unaccounted for. This report has raised more questions than answers and Classic Bank has refused to comment. We asked the old auditors who said that ‘we only worked on the figures given to us’. Therefore it is unlikely ever to be resolved. In the meantime, the only Elder who remains from that era, is Yerba, Elder 2. However he too declined to comment. < Previous Page 201 Castor <05.3.7> Cooler [12 = 182 <223> 00 = 050] Next Page 203 > |
