the spelling errors and the typos in the original letter look a bit suspicious

reminds me of when i was back in high school pretended to be a Swedish lesbian bikini model on icq chat...i'd throw in a Ja and Nej and copious use of the ö and å letters thinking it would fool whoever i was chatting with.

when I was little I wrote to andrex asking them to make the toilet roll middles bigger as my gerbil (fergal) had got fat and couldn't fit through anymore. I'm not sure what the response was, but I remember they wrote back, possibly enclosing a wider tube?
