You're good at these. I remember reading some of your past footles and they flowed so naturally.

Definitely no monkeying around here, Andrea! You tackle Footles with a serious mentality, and yet with a nice big grin keeping you company as you write :) Regards // paul

I agree with Mahtab, very creative. I admire how you change even one letter from Funky. Best for a win.
