Phil,
Hope the morning is going well. Make sure you eat breakfast today, I think there's some biscuits in my desk.
No need to panic on the arrival of this letter but just to inform you I am currently being held in the city jail. You know how it is, you say one inappropriate thing to a nun these days...
There is an envelope of money taped behind my filing cabinet, unless Fedor has found it again. Do bring it along to bail me out when you have a spare moment. There is a rather unpleasant man sharing a cell with me, and I don't think stripes suit my image.
All the best, see you soon.
P.T.
