Nell: Marvin’s thrown his collar into the ring.
Me: From Toronto?
Nell: Not literally. You’re as bad as David. He’s been carrying that ring around for days.
Me: Oh, I see.
Nell: Marvin can’t be at the actual auditions so he’s going to zoom in.
Me: Like Google Earth? See what I did there?
Me: I love Marv to bits but surely the only Indiana Bones is Dave. Darling Big Brave Beautiful Boy.
Nell: Marvin is up for a supporting role. Have you shared the link to the fundraiser?
Me: Not for a few days but I will right now: https://gofund.me/42cc1159
Nell: Donations have stalled so we’re going to have to come up with a few ideas and the first is a competition.
Me: Really?
Nell: Yes. One of your followers suggested it. Everyone who donates £25 or more will have the chance for their animal to win a part in the Indiana Bones movie.
Me: But not the part of Indy?
Nell: Of course not. It will be a supporting role. They will need to put ‘Indy’ in the comments though so we know they are taking part.
Me: Just to be clear the winner will feature in a Conversations with Nell story?
Nell: Exactly.
Me: With photos?
Nell: Of course. They can be emailed to you once the winner is chosen with information about the animal so you can write a conversation.
Me; And it doesn’t have to be a dog?
Nell: No. It can be any animal.
Me: We can print out the conversation and sign it.
Nell: Yes, and send it to the winner.
Me: How long should the competition run?
Nell: Let’s give it until 16th August.
Me: That’s Kev’s birthday.
Nell: I know and he will announce it. Do keep up.
Me: Yes. Sorry.
