I am just like The Good Soldier Svejk, when he said:

"Humbly report, sir, replied Svejk, assuming the expression of a martyr, 'I never in my life had the slightest intention of insulting anybody and I never had any idea or even dreamed of any major-general. He really is the spit and image of Mr Purkrabek, the representative of the Slavia Insurance Company. He used to come to our local pub and once when he fell asleep at the table some charitable person wrote in an indelible pencil on his bald head: "Allow us to propose to you our scheme for safeguarding your children's dowries and trousseaux by means of an insurance policy as per schedule 3c enclosed." Of course everybody went away, leaving me alone with him and, because I always have bad luck, when he woke up and looked at himself in the mirror he got furious and thought it was me who had done it. He wanted to give me one across the jaw too."

Cheers Karen.
