Maybe he is scaling down due to heat? I was rolling an RAC of 20k but had to scale it back a bit because of excessive heat.

My esteemed colleagues,

Re your posts of the 11th inst, I have been given to understand that general enquiries have been made appertaining to my whereabouts and general disposition. I am pleased therefore to take this opportunity to respond to your kind concerns.

I have been for some time now in foreign climes to recover from an iniquitous altercation in the local Emporium run by no other than the aforementioned Mrs. Miggins, when I had popped in for some warm bloomers. In previous communications from her I had believed that she was chaste, and I was a welcome suitor, but I discovered to my dismay that this was not indeed the case. It appeared that her spelling was somewhat bereft of accuracy and that in fact she was chased (by many others), and that my attentions did not suit her.

To recover from such a cruel blow, I therefore purchased a Postal & Orient steamer ticket, packed my portmanteau, and embarked on a journey culminating at my present location. I find the climate equitable, although the local cuisine is shall we say somewhat different from the New Delhi in Gasworks Lane.

I would venture to suggest that I still have high hopes regarding Mrs Miggins and would be pleased to receive any news of the said personage. In the meantime I send you all my warmest felicitations and good wishes for your future prosperity.

I beg to remain you most humble friend,

Sidney J. Snodgrass (Retd)
Late of her Majesties 3rd Foot & Mouth

No, but don't pass up the chance to sample Mrs. Miggins hot cross buns or her crumpets.

First, I heard that Sidney has only a reserve
commission, and the only time any one ever saw
him with the Regiment was when he managed to sober
up enough to drag himself to the bar at the mess!

No. And for the geographically or historically challenged, the Khyber Pass is in Afghanistan, not central Africa.
