OK. It seems a bit odd but I now understand the reasoning.
How is it used to actually send messages between objects?
This seems quite funky but is it what sendmessage is for?

Type test1
    Method sendmessage:Object(message:Object,context:Object)
           Return context.sendmessage(message,Null)
    End Method
	
End Type

Type test2
     Method sendmessage:Object(message:Object,parm:Object)
           Local mystring:String=String(message)
           Print mystring
           Return "OK"
     End Method
End Type

Local msg:Object="Hello World"
Local mytest1:test1=New test1
Local mytest2:test2=New test2
Print String(mytest1.sendMessage(msg,mytest2))
