Esther does not need milk At least not right now Maybe someday Pour the milk on the flowerpots The ones without flowers are ravenous Plant the bottles in the garden They will be fine Excess can be stored in barrow park

sounds like a cross between Welsh and Chinese.
Much of it comes from the back of the throat, ripples along the tongue and slams into the roof of the mouth.
The intonation goes up and down a lot (which is pleasant) - but there are also a lot of startling exclamations mixed in, making the speaker seem aggressive to those who (like me) are used to speaking English.

Dear Esther,
I have notified Sam of your absence and hope he will follow through.
Thanks for the postcards. Enjoy your stay.
As always, love,
Ron
email sent to Sam at Dairy in Dorset. I told him to cancel milk for Esther until you returned.
Have a good trip. Enjoying the postcards.
I received a response:
Dear Mr Bewley
Esther who?
I have several customers with the name 'Esther'.
And when will she return?
And from where?
And what will I do with the two days of milk I have already delivered and which is sitting on her doorstep?
I look forward to receiving more information and your instructions.

So, what did you tell him?
Esther
Esther does not need milk
At least not right now
Maybe someday
Pour the milk on the flowerpots
The ones without flowers are ravenous
Plant the bottles in the garden
They will be fine
Excess can be stored in barrow park
