I’ve just received word from my “the smoking man” on the inside of the umbrella corporation we all know and love and obey, CapeSoft. Big News!
A significant special on CapeSoft accessories is planned for next Thursday (16th of October in Australia).
Adorning my tweed sleuth hat and wielding my cane, I personally contacted a CapeSoft Representative, who has to remain nameless for fear of Newsgroup Mobbing. They said, and I quote, “We can neither confirm nor deny rumours of an impending special.”
