Come on people,these letters aren't written by real people,they are made up by senior mangement and just printed with a fictional name.

Not such a bad idea that, and they could give me the full time job of sorting the bands into the different colours, just right as I need light duties at my age. :nana :nana

I think the fact that they write in to The Courier tells us all we need to know.

Actually, this month's star letter is from someone who describes how RM's 'modernisation' is cack, and why P&L etc doesn't work. I very much doubt management would write that and make it star letter, even the RM management aren't quite that stupid. :crazy:

but have you noticed how these not very often published letters never get a reply, they find the time to reply to letters about rubber bands and cockheads wanting to collect mail while out on the job but whenever theres ever a half decent story that deserves a reply............... naff all as usual......tossers.
