E-MAIL TO DR. JOHN FROM THE WALNUT TREE ALLOTMENT BRIDGE CLUB.....

• Dear Dr. John, I was really fascinated by your recent blog on the Scatalogica Turdis affliction. Boy, did it ring a bell. Why, even within our own club which has a very small membership indeed, we have someone who has this affliction big time. For instance, every time he enters the club on a Thursday night he asks the same question : " I've no partner.....are there are floaters standing by ? " We have never known this man to make a statement without some word or phrase of a scatalogical nature being present. So thank you very much at putting our minds to rest, as to why he behaves this way. Yours Ivor Rumpole
