>I notice that my apprenticeship is over and I am now a journeyman

Congratulations!. Welcome to the “journeypersons” club!.

>Those of you unable to attend juanmaria's party in sunny Spain are welcome to come to wintry Hobart

I missed you at my party but you can count with me. And you had better fill your pantry. My friends say that they prefer buying me a suit than inviting me to a dinner.

>I'll have to check out the price of air fares.
Jo, I’ll go swimming and, if you want, I can wait for you in South Africa and get David there.

And now I’m going to email my friend Fidel to warn him about some rub/red disguised CIA agent.
