    Hello Bob,
    I did not hear from you yesterday. Are you there? Hope all now OK with this club and you can go to a Western Union?
    Waiting to hear

    Good Afternoon,
    I am a Detective Inspector at Dundee Police Station and am investigating the murder of a local bowling club president. Right now, the case is still very unclear but it appears that he was inflated with water until the point of what the pathologist is calling ‘disintegration’.
    My prime suspect is a man called Robert Servant. He is pleading his innocence and says that at the time of the murder he was ‘up a tree’. However we have now accessed his computer and I see you are the last person he had contact with.
    Can you please explain the exact nature of your relationship with Mr Servant?
    Yours,
    Detective Inspector Angela Lansbury
    Dundee Police Force
    No problem too small

If anything, we should be applauded.”’)

    21 Another of Bob’s favourite jokes. I would estimate that I have heard it over 400 times but have to concede this is considerably less than Bob’s desperately unfortunate postman.

Why Me? 2
    From: Rose
    To: Bob Servant
    Subject: Why Me?
    Hello dear,
    My name is Rose. I am 24 years old and am residing in the refugee camp in Sudan as a result of the civil war in my country. Please listen to this important information, My late father was the managing director of a major Factory and he was the personal advicer to the former head of state before the rebels attacked our house and killed my mother and my father in cold blood. It was only me that is alive now and I managed to make my way to this camp.
    When my father was alive he deposited money in one of the leading banks in Europe which he used my name as the next of kin. The amount in question is $9.3 (Nine Million three Hundred Thousand US Dollars). And i have contacted the bank so that i can have the money to start a new life but they requested that i should have a foreign partner as my representative due to my living status here. I know that you would be a proper person for this. I know already that I trust you. I need only your information.
    Yours in love.
    Rose

    Rose,
    Great to hear from you again. You appear to have sent me exactly the same email you sent me a couple of months ago so I am sorry to hear that things have not improved at your end. However, I’m disappointed to see that your $9.3m has not gained any interest in the meantime. I’m no expert, but an amount that large should really be on a decent interest rate. Anyway, things are progressing OK at my end with the book. I’ve met some great colleagues of yours in the Internet cowboy game and am just about to speak to some more.
    As I said, you’re more than welcome to get involved?
    Your Servant,
    Bob
