Something for the weekend? No not that! Something for the gardening aficionados out there:

The Letter - one for the gardeners. (http://sheffieldwriters.ath.cx/SFStoryArchive/1175957624.doc)

An offer you can't refuse.- unless you're really thick skinned.

I am a gardener, so thought this was very funny.Especially as I have bought a box of plant feed today from Wilkinsons. :hihi:

Oh I absolutely loved that one, and the commendations at the end made it even funnier. :thumbsup: :hihi:

Hopman,

That looked so much like a letter from the Readers Digest Pointless Promotions department that I am forwarding your name as a future employee.

Really liked that one.

As Shoeshine says, the commendations at the end just add that little bit extra, so I’ll add one of my own.

“A delightfully dung-ho approach to letter writing”

A point of clarification with regard to two of the names mentioned.

G. Stansfield was born above a fish and chip shop in Rochdale. She was better known under her stage name of Gracie Fields.

"Paddy Kerm" can be re-arranged to "Pakky Derm" which is a close approximation to pachyderm.
