The Reverend Rufus has trouble getting his mind around the enormity of my offer...
Dear Friar Tuck,
Your mail received.
We could not understand what you meant by $20. Australian.
Could you explain this to our clearer understanding. I wait to read from you.
Rev. Rufus Adams.
My Dear Ecclesiastical Colleague,
You drive a hard bargain.
I have consulted with the Bursar and we have agreed that we can stretch the budget to $25. That is Australian dollars, of course.
Please let me know your decision.
I remain most humbly,
Augustus Tuck.
