Dear John,
Are you looking forward to getting beaten by all 3 England teams at the home international tournament?
Yours,

Dear St
Yes indeed, I am looking to this event. Given the record of England teams in APAT competitions, the scenario you suggest would appear unlikely. However, I would be pleased to see England do well this time.
Doing well is, of course, a relative thing. For England, this means not being last yet again. And this is where the organizers have played a blinder on your behalf. With three teams in the competition, it is already guaranteed that two England teams won"t finish bottom, so you are already ahead of your average result in previous events. Congratulations are therefore due to you for what is already England"s best result ever.
John

I have a fossil, which I found in my garden. It looks like this:
The three long sections are about the size of my first three fingers together. At first, I thought it was a fossilized foot of some sort, but it turned out to be the entire creature.
It is a trilobite and it is old. Think of something very old - it"s older than that. This thing is 400 million years old. I don"t know anything else that is as old as that. Actually, I found it five years ago, so it"s 400 million and five years old now. They have never been found in Portsmouth before.
I might bring him for a day out at an APAT tournament. He hasn"t seen much of the world outside my garden for the last 400 million and five years and loads of stuff has changed in that time. He could always earn his keep as a card protector.

That"s a serious wow find and using a fossil as a card protector didn"t do Greg Raymer any harm...
