[FAIL!private to the Admiral. ie--not private at all]

Excuse me, Admiral fellow, if you could do a chap a favour, I'd like to trade in my current Warden Item for a new one. I'd like my new Warden Item to be a valet, tall, dark-haired, goes by the name of "Reginald Jeeves." I'm sure he'd do a corking job keeping me informed of my inmate-to-be's activities, as he's always kept me informed of dashed near everything that one could possibly need to be informed about. In fact, he's the most informed bird I know. "Informed" is just the word to describe him.

And I'd be bally grateful if you could make the replacement quickly. I've a yearning for a spot of tea, you see, and the kettle's a bit tricky.

In that case, I want mine tall, stacked up top, and likes the feel of leather. Know what I'm saying?

[Bertie interprets "stacked up top" as "wearing a big hat" and "likes the feel of leather" as "works outdoors, probably with animals."]

You...want a cowboy for your Warden Item?

[That? Is officially the greatest misinterpretation of anything, ever.]

I think you misread... everything above. A cowboy seems more like something you'd want.

[Bertie misinterprets things almost always.]

Why would I want a cowboy? There aren't many cows in the metrop, or on this ship for that matter. A valet is much more practical, unless cowboys are equally good as valets at making tea and tidying rooms.

It was a joke.

Nevermind. Why can't you tidy your own room or make your own tea?

[what_ho_jeeves]

Well, if I did that what would my valet do?

[Also, Bertie is incapable of making tea and too lazy to tidy his room.]

Not a damn thing since he's not here, apparently.
