thinks you for the flashers

Poetry & Literature
Si sta parlando di una nobildonna un po' eccentrica, che sa parlare inglese ma non scriverlo. Il contesto è questo:
"She carried on her social correspondence in a kind of English:"Carla thinks you for the flashers", "Carla rekkests the honour of your compagnie".
Il senso è ovviamente ironico, ma non capisco bene né il senso della frase, né come renderlo in italiano.
Mi date una mano? grazie!
