To ALL Officers of the Saxon Corps.

A Grand Ball will be held in the small 546 campaign tent of Maréchal Eugene to welcome his officers and their ladies.
Full dress will be worn by all (to see how well my men are turned out)
Guests will arrive by 8 of the hour on the night of the <i><b>16 Dec this year</b></i>. Any one not attending will be moved to the reserves.
In other words gentlemen....this is a <b><u><i>roll call</i></u></b> for the VII Saxon Corps.
Please reply to the address below. I will only use this address for roll calls nothing else. I will ask you to please tell me your name, your command and if you can get into your dress uniform. ( see how fit some of you are ?????)

[url="mailto:eugene_bonapart@yahoo.com.au "]RSVP Here please[/url]

Otto get the Oompah band warmed up. I want lots of lively music to ring out all night long and get some of Madam Fifis ladies in for the night of the ball.....just in case some officers do not have ladies to accompany them.
Now about the food and drinks, lock the doors in case that red coated devil turns up...you know the one has those dirty boots on all the time.

My Dear Eugene:

Sorry, they are all dead. I killed them all while you were away. [:(]

Gently Ken, gently. We mustn't discourage the 'Genester. He just returned and to find his army scattered would break his little pea pickin' heart!
