Subject: Re: PUPT: Puppets in London??


I have a quick gig coming up in Manalapan, New Jersey.  I'll be going by way of
Paris, Bombay and Kathmandu.  Of course checking with my friends in the puppet
world along the way, and seeing if any of them can loan me money.  By the way,
did I mention that I almost once performed at the birthday of the daughter of the
mayor of Manalapan.  He suddenly had to leave office due to a hush-hush political
scandal.

Yours,
Preston
