It sometimes takes work to sink a hook
Dear Mr. Mamar:
What seems to be the problem, lad?You emailed me with a proposition, I promptly mailed back. If you've found someone else to do your transfer, wonderful, but it's rather rude to just leave an old man hanging like that.
Do get back to me, will you?
Your Humble Servant,
Don Morgan, Capt. (retired) HM Royal Navy
