The Saucepan Man tinkered his way over to join the large Hippopotamus and a rather clumsy looking female Elf. They both seemed to be examining an empty tissue box to which a styrofoam cup had been attached.

"Hello there, I am the Saucepan Man", he said proferring his hand, a small stainless steel Le Creuset pan tied to his right arm gently knocking against a pitch black kettle hanging from his waist as he did so.

"You don't say," replied Trippo. "I am Trippo the Hippo".

"Nice to meet you, Pippo"

"Er, that's Trippo."

"Yes, yes, Flippo."

"TRIPPO!"

"Ah, Trippo the Hippo, yes. I believe that you were organising a Disco Dancing competition. I brought my mirrorball especially", remarked Saucepan pointing proudly at the dazzling orb suspended above the dance floor.

"And I am Menelien", replied the Elven maid.

"Enchanted to make your acquaintance, Menelien", said the Saucepan Man.

"Oh, no trouble with her name then" observed Trippo.

"I noticed that you were not feeling well earlier. I trust that you are recovered now" said Saucepan.

"Yes, much better, thanks", the Elf replied and promptly fell asleep.

The Saucepan Man looked up to see a merry fellow dressed in a bright new blue jacket and fetching boots beaming at him. A look of recognition instantly crossed his face.

"Iarwain!" he exclaimed. "So nice to meet you in person at last."
