Kind Folks,

So I understand it is...

An Eagle for an Emperor, a Gyrfalcon for a King; a Peregrine for a Prince, a Saker for a Knight, a Merlin for a Lady; a Goshawk for a Yeoman, a Sparrowhawk for a Priest, a Musket for a Holy water Clerk, a Kestrel for a Knave.

And...

An Acorn for an Hour.

Or at least that is what Bill Drummond is willing to offer for an hour of your attention of what might appear on the Penkiln Burn website over the coming months of 2024.

The books will be balanced this coming October, when the Acorns begin their Fall. And when he will be sitting under an Oak Tree with his sack of Fallen Acorns waiting for you to turn up with your invoice for the hours of your Attention given to the Penkiln Burn website between now and then.

As for the which Oak Tree...

For 2024 it was going to have to be The Corby Oak.

Drummond returned to The Blank Cheque to paint the signature of The Corby Oak.

If this payment does not seem just or reflect the current market value of your Attention, Bill Drummond suggests you take your Attention elsewhere.

Kind Regards,
