Almost lovely enough to have me reconsidering the customs brokering line of life.<BR/><BR/>Regarding the draught sausage's face, I offer here two assurances: assurance the first, the draught sausage, to the best of my knowledge, contains no ingredient that ever was sentient; moreover, all sausages at Hôtel Harlot - including a pack of rather tasty chickpea numbers from the fridge at Coles New World - are one hundred per cent vegetarian; assurance the second, due to popular demand, the draught sausage will have a face. I am stuffing with newspaper (many thanks to Jennifer for the suggestion) and will get to physiognomical details in the fullness of time.
