Jeff had finished composing his email, and had sent it island-wide. When I started looking for new recruits, I guess I never thought about personal problems. Still, it's not crippling to us, though I prefer a full compliment over anything else. It's just unfortunate. There was a knock on the door, and Jeff turned to it, and granted entry.

"Hey, Dad."

Gordon sauntered into the study with a mail carrying bag slung over one shoulder, and a pile of letters in one hand.

"Hi, son," Jeff said. "You're delivering the mail today?"

"Well, Cherie's in school. Plus, I was thinking of leaving the bag for her, filled with fake snakes, and maybe a rubber chicken."

Jeff shook his head, keeping his lips pressed together to stop himself smiling.

"Gordon," he said warningly.

"I said I was thinking about it," Gordon said. "I could also fill it with Silly Putty."

"May I have my mail?" Jeff asked, holding out his hand.

"Oh, yeah."

Gordon handed over the pile of letters, and Jeff began to sift through them.

"There's one letter that all of us seem to have gotten. Looks like it might be from the dentist."

"I wonder what that's about. We've kept up with our appointments."

"Who knows? Well, I must do my mail carrying duty. Onwards! Bye, Dad."

"Goodbye son. And Gordon? Don't rile your sister."

"Yes sir," Gordon said with mock disappointment, before sauntering back out the door.

Jeff watched as the door slid shut again, and shook his head, before sifting through the letters to find the one Gordon had been talking about. He had been right; it was from the dentist.

Dear Mr Tracy,

I am writing to inform you that the dental practice you are registered with, Crane Dental Surgery, has been bought over by myself, Ms Izarra Soto Fernandez, due to its previous owner Mr Edmund McCann's retirement.

Services will remain the same and all other dentists at the surgery are still practicing here. I hope that you will continue as our patient. Any queries you may have are welcome, and may be directed to the telephone number given below.

Yours sincerely,

Izarra Soto Fernandez, GDP

Jeff re-read the letter, before setting it down on his desk. That's a shame about Ed, he thought. I'd better get background checks rolling on this lady -- just in case. He began dialling a number into the vidphone, and waited as it began to ring out.
