would be great. To Jason I replied that he would get a lovely punch in the face as a birthday present and not a cherry red Ferrari, as he had hoped for. Sarcasm drenching every word. He’d be sitting in his pub laughing at that and then come up with a smart reply. I had to think a little before writing to Dave. I was still very conflicted about the whole situation with him.
