COLOUR SUPPLEMENT - DG OFF TO CANADA
And you will notice how, just for the Deege, the moon and the stars come out in the daytime to pay tribute to him! (Fault in the photo? What fault in the photo?) Also, if you examine the photo carefully (though we perfectly understand if you choose not to), the Deege is accompanied by his personal rainbow. Needless to say, the Deege's rainbow has a crock of ill-gotten gold at both ends.
We hope to see the Deege back in Lewes, recovered and refreshed (if not cured of his megalomania) by the time Rocket goes on air. We know he'll be back, because we can see his passport in his breast pocket. It's a forged passport, of course - he likes to travel anonymously.

(You can tell how happy he is by the way his eyes are shining.) He has always been deeply fond of Thomas House, because it is one of the first of the palaces that he built, when he was quite a young man.
