DEAR SIR OR MADAM
These are extracts from actual letters sent to various councils and housing associations throughout the UK
| I want some repairs done to my cooker as it has backfired and burnt my knob |
| I wish to complain that my father hurt his ankle very badly when he put his foot in the hole in his back passage |
| ...and their 18 year old son is continually banging his balls against my fence |
| I wish to report that tiles are missing from the outside toilet roof. I think it was bad wind the other night that blew them off |
| My lavatory seat is cracked, where do I stand |
| I am writing on behalf of my sink which is coming away from the wall |
| Will you please send someone to mend the garden path. My wife tripped and fell on it yesterday and now she is pregnant |
| We are getting married in September and we would like it in the garden before we move into the house |
| I request permission to remove my drawers in the kitchen |
| ...50% of the walls are damp, 50% have crumbling plaster and the rest are plain filthy |
| I am still having problems with smoke in my new drawers |
| The toilet is blocked and we cannot bath the children until it is cleared |
| Will you please send a man to look at my water, it is a funny colour and not fit to drink |
| Our lavatory seat is broken in half and is now in three pieces |
| Would you please send a man to repair my spout. I am an old age pensioner and need it badly |
| I want to complain about the farmer across the road; every morning at 6am his cock wakes me up and its now getting too much for me |
| The man next door has a large erection in the back garden, which is unsightly and dangerous |
| Our kitchen floor is damp. We have two children and would like a third so please send someone round to do something about it |
| I am a single woman living in a downstairs flat and would you please do something about the noise made by the man I have on top of me every night |
| Please send a man with the right tool to finish the job and satisfy my wife |
| I have had the clerk of the works down on the floor six times but I still have no satisfaction |
| This is to let you know that our lavatory seat is broken and we can't get BBC2 |
| My bush is really overgrown round the front and my back passage has fungus growing in it |
| ... and he's got this huge tool that vibrates the whole house and I just can't take it anymore |
| It's his excuse for dogs mess that I find hard to swallow |
