More strictures from North Wales

Dear Mr Stringfellow, Mrs Trellis writes, as the widow of a strict Rechabite, I am horrifeid by your casual attitude to the consumption of alchohol.
Still, if Shakespeare is to be believed, it probably reduces your ability to have your wicked way with innocent girls, and a good thing too.
There is too much of that sort of loose moral behaviour and messing about these days. In my young day, it was confined to the Welsh valleys, and mostly during the winter months at that when there wasn't a lot else to do, but now it seems to be everywhere.
Why don't you take up a nice hobby like embroidery or embalming and leave the drink and the girls alone? Just a suggestion.
Blodwen Trellis, etc
