How I came to write Pim
People often ask how I came to write Pim. It seems like a thousand years since I discovered Pim, or that Pim

Slim’s accession was deemed suspicious so the ballots were reëxamined and revealed someone named Prim to be the real winning candidate.
Vicissitudes of life being what they are, the reunion of Pim, Bim and Gim was foiled by a sandstorm. The trio responded multifariously.

A sociable fellow, the Well-Dressed Albatross was thrilled to meet Slim in the dining-room (keen too that Slim now had an expense account).
