7th April 2000 Letters

Dear Sir,

I take exception with Col. Buffy Genks view of the lesbian scene in "Something fishy going on here".We cannot hide the fact that although such behaviour may have been regarded as 'unnatural' in Col.Genk's prime, lesbianism is here and here to stay.

I have watched the scene in question over and over again and find it very tasteful. My only gripe is that its context was slightly lost as there were no attendant tennis scenes.

Yours,

Billy-Jean Dodd

 

Dear Sir,

I would like a contact address for Mr Dodd with reference to his letter (10th March). I was wondering if he did mail order to the UK as I have been banned from most Chemists in London (long story).

Also I have been tipped off that he thinks he bears a striking resemblance to that gorgeous 80's crooner and trend setter Mr Tony Hadley.! If this is true please can he deliver in person.

Yours,

Desperate for some emollient

 

Dear Sir,

At first these good ladies thought the police were after illegal contraband such as Gucci handbags, Louis Vuitton wallets and Mont Blanc Wallets etc. etc. However they were shocked to discover that the shops were actually being raided for selling fake copies of the wonderful blue/navy Tunaville Ruby tops!!

Sir, what has the world come to that our very own rugby tops are being copied and sold cheaply on the streets to all and sundry? We need to do something about all these illegal goods - the bona-fide companies must be losing a fortune in lost revenue.

I have in fact been told that someone who looked a bit like David Beckham (that Manchester United football player) was selling the very same fake shirts, very cheaply, from a black holdall bag at the Hong Kong Rugby 7's - seemingly he made a fortune - at our expense!!

We really need to take some action on this. Are any of your readers interested in getting a committee together to help stamp out this illegal trade?

Yours,

Name and Address Supplied.

 

Dear Sir,

I, like many other Tunaville residents have thoroughly enjoyed wearing the latest Tunaville themed fashion of sporting apparrel.

I do have a concern. I was lead to believe that all items had been designed and manufactured by a leading European Fashion house. Why then did I spy the man who is largely credited with reviving Tunaville's fashion sense climbing over the fence behind Bindi's store, clutching what looked like a bag of clothing.

I do not wish to create controversy, but I would like to be reassured that this latest fashion is indeed being manufactured in a responsible and humane manner and that the popularity of TunaFashion has not brought to Tunaville our very own sweat shop.

Yours Sincerely,

Mr & Mrs. Concerned Residents

 

Dear Sir,

Many of your readers will be aware of the huge financial success that my recent IPO has brought to me. (And to much of Manila it must be said.)

Through your pages I would like to invite your readers to benefit from my success.

For every Tunaville resident spotted wearing an item of TunaFashion, I will donate a princely sum, in cash, to the charity of their choice, or their pocket, whichever is preferable.

Yours,

Tim Horsley,
Tim.Com

 

Dear Sir,

Amid the recent furore that was the Tim.Com debacle outside the Bank of Tunaville, I wonder if I was the only one to notice the ethnic demographics that made up the queue?

From where I was standing, it certainly appeared to me that the first four hundred people in the line were certainly from South East Asia and were accompanied by an unusual number of stripey bags.

Now, I know for a fact that the President of Tim.Com is a frequent traveler to these strange lands and I wonder if there was not just smack of insider trading on this deal ?

A comment from any of our more financially savvy readers would be appreciated...or maybe a word from the potential beneficiary of such a deal.

Yours in intrigue,

David Dodd
