It's on page 27 just below "Situations Vacant" and just above "Small Items For Sale".<br /><br />As a point of interest may I point out that in the sit-vac. section there is currently an ad for the post of clown at Svenhasselstein's world famous "Vunderlich Circus". The Archduke may be aware that in Svenhasselstein the traditional preposterous clown figure has long been represented by the character dressed in purple.<br /><br />I just thought I'd mention it. :-)<br /><br />Steve.Stephen Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15868582245203627701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7152572458899289416.post-3374589850159565792013-11-16T17:26:50.972+00:002013-11-16T17:26:50.972+00:00Funny Little Wars

Was the Forbodian region, deep in its history, known for its defiance against some sort of Imperial authority? I can see how wearing the Imperial Purple might stick in the emperor's craw. Porphyrogenetus or otherwise, he must take offence. Hence one imagines that a people given to an insouciant defiance towards authoritarian rule might choose a sartorial mode that says to authority: 'C'm 'ere an' get wot's comin' to ye.'<br /><br />Archduke Piccolohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15533325665451889661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7152572458899289416.post-66371288257003958212013-11-15T22:50:41.124+00:002013-11-15T22:50:41.124+00:00Tarbooshia takes note........Tarbooshia takes note........The Dancing Cake Tinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05942718929841617253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7152572458899289416.post-39038690916147990632013-11-15T21:07:32.259+00:002013-11-15T21:07:32.259+00:00Hurrah!
