llamaIt's been a while since we've heard from Lynda's llamas in the Fantasy Archers topic of .

Storming into the llama shed, Wolfgang slammed shut the door and gave vent to his feelings.

"**%$!µ$m!! §**ll # **@!" he said.

"Wath up?" lisped Constanza.

"Thad bluddee woman!" fumed Wolfgang.

"Wath Leenda do now?" asked Constanza, wiggling her tongue at him in a strange manner.

Wolfgang regarded her closely. "You know you haf beet paper stuck to tongue?" he enquired.

"Yeth, eeth thtamp."

"Eet haf peecture of Queen's head on eet," announced Wolfgang, peering closely.

"Yeth I know," Constanza was becoming slightly impatient. "Thtamp thtuck."

"Eet stamp!" exclaimed Wolfgang, for all the world a modern day Archimedes in the bath.

"I know eeth thtamp," said Constanza, through teeth gritted as tightly as the protruding tongue would allow her.

"Why you haf stamp on tongue?"

"Beecause," said Constanza, finally managing to detach the offending object, "I writing Chreesmas cards, and thees ees for envelope."

The two proud parents gazed lovingly at the photo for a few moments.

"Thad remind me, Roberto haf lod answer for too!"

"Nod Don Roberto?" Constanza was shocked.

"Goeeng behind my back like thad. Nod a word to me." Wolfgang thought dark thoughts.
