Comrade Svet, just reporting in. Sorry I am a little late in filing my report of the glorious day that will be for ever known as Basildon Day, but I've only just got up. For some reason I'm completely shattered. Admittedly, after the Clarke Conquest was over I did indulge by celebrating our victory with copious amounts of vodka and Red Bull. That drink is a capitalist plot to undermine civilisation, if ever there was one! Suffice to say all the troops were outstanding, Red Sonja performed her duties admirably, the dogs were superb and the sandwiches were just what the doctor ordered! Thank you comrades for making two old Russians very content. We couldn't have done it without you and Olg and Svet are happy women,tonight. Mr Clarke has an even more puzzled expression than usual but that will soon fade. We will have memories that will carry us through to our next adventure! Thank you all. You will all receive the Minsk Order of Merit for services rendered, in due course. Right now I'm off back to bed. Although Olga appears ready and willing to do it all over again, I think it may take me a little time to recover, night night, everyone and thanks.
