At the same time a new and important writer has been brought to our attention, Shaka Pebblehead. Would it be possible to read a quote or two from his (or her) work. Perhaps a paragraph or two from 'A lobster's brain' or perhaps his (or her) work "They Selected The Burlap Sheaths For The Central Lever : True Stories Of Heroic Colour-Coding" or any other work that Mr Key would consider eddifying.
