Man about town Sidney Bridgwater has been chatting to a Nigerian Prince by email, but realises that, after 7 years of doing so, he has been the only one doing any work.

'It started so well,' said a morose Sidney. 'He emailed me out of the blue, and said that he had a million to give to me, so I just thought 'this bloke seems like he is worth my time.' Of course, seven years later, he hasn't sent me back one email, and I poured out my heart to him. I mean, I should have learnt after Sexy Sadie on Firestarter.com, but some attractive women in their twenties are drawn to men like me, aren't they?'

The funny story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious.
