Hedgehog Heaven.
George - "Sir! You deeply flatter me." (bowing low)
Jan H. - I bow, "Thank you. I hope the champagne, coffee, soda, water, tea and seat were to your liking."
Hannah - I bow to your greatness. "No. I don't sing in the shower. Our walls are to thin and I wouldn't want the neighbors to suffer. I only sing in my truck while driving country roads, or softly in to donna's ear when dancing."
Wonderful!

Let the beaver's cousin portray "The Porcupine's of Penzance."
Carol Lloyd - I bow in grateful response to your praise. My thanks.
