I shall have to prove my intentions more clearly.
I will walk from my home in Florida, US to yours in Wherever, UK. [Anyone know where I can get a 20,000 foot tall straw???]
Upon arriving, I shall throw myself at your feet, in abject humility, whereupon I shall beg your most gracious and undeserved indulgence of my past, present and future transgressions.
I will even learn to spell words such as 'apologize' with an 's' instead of a zed. I promize.
After cleaning your house, tending your garden, fixing your dinner, washing and ironing the laundry, I shall run your bath, testing it with my most unworthy elbow for correct temperature, and then wash your back with a loofa held between my teeth. (Keeping my eyes discretely closed the entire time, of course).
After tucking you into bed, I will sleep, fitfully and with one eye open, at the foot of your bed, ever on guard for the slighest indication of your discomfort, to which I shall respond immediately.
The next morning, I shall of course fix you tea and crumpets (with marmalade) before embarking upon my long, tortuous walk back home.
I do this willingly, praying only that you will grant me your forgiveness for that which I have never done. If my small gestures of subjugation fail to sway you, I shall be forced to live the remainder of my life in miserable depression, doomed to live with the knowledge of my failure.
Please accept my apologies.
