Dear Magic,
By the way - yonks ago when I was a child, I had a wonderful book called 'The Useful Dragon'. It was a series of short stories and my favourite was one about a bootmaker who fell asleep in a field and squashed all the mushrooms. The mushrooms were the elves chimneys and they wreaked havoc on his business as a result of his ignorance. Anyway, it all turned out okay in the end, with him apologising and the elves turning up at night to make the best boots in the world. I must find a copy of it if possible.
