"Horst, yes do come in. Won't you follow me to the kitchen-I've got a bouillabaisse simmering and I've forgotten to add the orange rind."
"It smells heaven sent-Yah, I had such a lovely dinner last night and it pains me to bother you now with my unfortunate news Mews." Horst takes a seat looking glum.
"Oh dear, has something happened?" Mews asks after tasting his broth. Horst pulls a piece of paper out from his sweater and hands it to Mews.
"I received this under my door this morning." Mews takes the note and reads it: "Get lost dog! Go back to Bavaria!" Mews shakes his head and takes a seat as Horst continues. "Like I said, I hate to bother you with this but I feel quite shaken and honestly, I feel a little frightened. Do you have any idea who might be behind this?"
"Hmm. I'm not sure. But I'm going to get to the bottom of this, Horst. This note is not representative of my building and indeed, my city of Portland. I shall do some sniffing around and get to the bottom of this vexing mystery. In the meantime, pull up a chair. I shan't allow you to leave tonight without some stew and some reassuring companionship."
"Mews, you are quite the gentleman. I must say if it weren't for you I might be packing up my bags."

I don't like the sound of this Mews. Intimidation is not what Portland is all about.Good luck on sussing this out!
ReplyDeleteI don't like the sound of this either Tomcat. I will not let a few bad apples spoil the cider.
ReplyDeletePoor Horst! I hope you can find out who sent that note. It must have been written by a Meanie!
ReplyDeleteWe think only cowardly beings send anonymous notes like that! We're sure Mr. Mews will help Horst out - he's a true gentlecat.
ReplyDeleteWow, that is shocking that someone would send a nasty note to Horst! we hope you all get to the bottom of it. He sounds like a nice guy, so he doesn't deserve that.
ReplyDeleteOh no! Poor Horst, he must have a very big worry-worry. I hope you can help him Mr. Mews! Is like a Holmes mystery.
ReplyDeleteHorst...do not worry. Mr. Mews WILL get to the bottom of this.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't have said it better myself Admiral!
