As I was putting together a computer from second hand parts, I found the old hard drive hadn't been erased.
This included the previous owners emails.
I felt conflicted about reading them.
But this passed quickly.
To my delight I discovered a correspondence between two people dating back to 1999.
They were truthful, touching and a little funny.
I became addicted and felt compelled to share it. Unedited.
Currently the uploading is on holidays. But Bored Olives will return 22nd April 2012. In the meantime you can read all the emails at http://boredolivesarchives.blogspot.com and subscribe to the next chapter at boredolives.com in the new year.

If you’re shouting, I’m getting me the biggest coffee ever.
And a sandwich.
And some cake.
And some orange juice.
And some more cake.
And a little chocolate something.
And a fancy coffee that actually ruins the taste of real coffee.
And some new trousers.
And some chocolate trousers.
And some socks.
And a new Television.
And a car.
And some more cake.
And a return ticket to Rome.
And a house.
And a chocolate house. (NOTE: It doesn’t have to be too fancy)
And a wife that adores me.
And children that respect me.
And a winning lottery ticket.
And a doctor on call to stop any illness.
And a Mausoleum for when the doctor fails.
Speak during the week.

PS And if you get my that Mausoleum, I want it to have a 24 four hour coffee-stand just in case I come back from the dead (‘Cause I’m really going to need a coffee then.)
