Dear Hillary,

Does anyone want the company of a broke person? I’m available.

Dear (impecunious) Singha Jerry,

At your age, “broke” usually refers to something like, “I fell over and broke my hip.” You, my Petal, are really saying that you are wanting a cashless transaction (mainly because you haven’t got any)! Perhaps if you stopped donating money to the Singha Brewery, you could start looking for a paid companion again?
