Night
Shift
Letter
Dear
Treasurer,
It
is our wish
To
make your lot much sweeter
When
the little man comes round next time
To
read the King Street meter
We
do not know how much you want
But
we’re working on the hunch
That
this will buy sufficient gas
To
cook the Night-Shift’s lunch.
Our
lunch is served at midnight (sharp)
(By
then we’ve come to life)
So
do drop in and have a bite.
PS
Bring fork and knife!

Response
Your
Ref:
N.S.I
The
Treasurer acknowledges
Your
generous donation
But
hates to think its lack might cause
The
Night-Shift night starvation.
Therefore
he has applied the cash
To
purchase this comestible
Which
he sincerely trusts you will
Accept
and find digestible
For
your invite to midnight lunch
He
also is most grateful.
He
will be there with knife and fork
So
please reserve a plateful
-
The Treasurer: 1960 |
