Wish you were here?

A recruitment consultant wrote to me today:

“When are you planning on coming back to Ireland.”

(He obviously misses me, so much so that he forgot to use a question mark)

.

I replied:

“I’ve no plans to come back at present.”

(That’s me, sailing on the winds of chance)

.

To which I get the reply:

“I don’t blame.”

.

Yes, not only is the economic situation so bad that recruitment consultants are depressed but they’ve lost the will to finish sentences and use proper punctuation, it’s a sad state of affairs…
