Martha, we had one other applicant for this position, however upon doing a thorough background check on Dark Wall, we discovered some serious brushes with the law that would besmirch Dkult's stellar reputation. mind you we DO give everyone a chance regardless of past circumstances, but these were just too big to overlook. Lucky Buck Laundering can not be tolerated and we feel your resourcefulness with the broomgoo situation should have been celebrated regardless of how many witches got ditched. So I am pleased to announce that you are now Dkult's resident diety polisher!  your spelling is correct DIETRY is the old english spelling as the word originated from the latin word for 'dreary'  we will discuss compensation after you sign your non disclosure agreement. we import our trash dieties from the finest dumps in the world and yet we can not publicly state this location for fear of looters

Martha's faux pas should not be used to paw her application aside, since the deity cannot but benefit from dietry, as well as a good polish.

Again, the address of, presumably, the representative of the Liverpool Correspondance School.

Thank you for checking, Martha. What I have learned since is interesting.

The address of the sender is actually Liverpool. (Mailed from Warrington.) Jim Leftwich tells me he has received mail from the Liverpool Correspondance [sic] School. That must be what the L.C.S. on my envelope represents.

I would be very interested to learn more about the Liverpool Correspondance School. They have some interest in Trashpo apparently.

DVS; I have looked it up and cannot find any LCS or anybody from Warrington among my contacts. I also checked the Mail Art UK group and no joy. Mystery.

Misspelling will count for or against me?

i have been reliable informed that it is Deity not Diety, oh deary me!

Oh!  Supreme Examiner. Firstly the important question of emoluments, i am hoping to get at least 10 billion Lucky Bucks.

The next important question: You asked about for particulars of my last job as polisher.

My job and my career went sadly down the drain as it was barely starting.

Are you sitting comfortably? Then I shall begin. As a trainee witch in my local coven I had the task of polishing the broomsticks. I loved my job, how they shined in the moonlight! Unknown to me - mind you, I was in the first year- the polish, or to give it its proper name, the ointment, is what causes the brooms to fly. True, I read it in Wikipedia.

One fateful day, seeing that I would soon run out of polish, I added some hand cream to it.  You see, I always kept some hand cream inside my hat; being a witch does not mean one has to have rough hands.

When the Head Witch came back limping I had a feeling something was not quite right. Call it a premonition.

It came to pass that certain ingredients in the hand cream reacted with the magic ointment sending the broomsticks into a spin and the witches into the ditches. The result was that I lost my job and was banned from every coven in the world including FaceBook. I hope you do not allow such a little mishap to colour you decision.

Martha, ex-trainee witch of this parish

FAB Trashpo from Warrington, Great Britain. But who is L.C.S.? Not a DKULTUK member I know. Thx all the same.

This is a very impressive interview Martha--I have only one other question for you before a decision can be considered for decision making consideration:  how much are you expecting to be paid? and why did you leave your last position?

Comment by Mail Art Martha on July 19, 2015 at 8:32pm

As requested I submit a photo of an statuette representing the Goddess of Trashpo. It is covered in rust as befits a Trashpo religious image. The rusting process is  kept  secret by a sect dedicated solely to the preservation of traditional rubbish.

To answer your question, oh! Augustus Examiner, a Trashpo Diety is a supernatural being that guides and protects each of us Trashpoets in our daily search for that elusive bit of trash that would make us the happiest of all Trashpoets. The Diety can be obtained at your local Walmarth, a bargain at 20 000 Lucky Bucks, and I hear that at the moment with each Diety they are giving away a bag of frozen free-range rats fed exclusively, when alive, on organic trash.

How do I clean my Goddess? Well this is obviously a trick question, Oh! Most Excellent Examiner, because a Trashpo Diety must never be cleaned, the devotee must always ensure that the rust is increased by leaving it out in the rain and failing rain, in those countries which do not have the luck of enjoying the continuous rainfall of the UK, by submerging it in water, preferable salted as that increases the rusting process.

I hope you are satisfied with my religious knowledge and grant me  the post of Diety Polisher.
