A while back I wrote THIS ....
”If there's a more boring scribe in Sunburnia than the Australian's Simple Error then I'm Terry Lane!
Today I received the following letter from a Sydney reader….
To the editor of the After Grog BlogDear Sir,
I write to protest your assertion that my good friend Errol Simper is "The most boring scribe in Sunburnia". I know this cannot be true because the most boring scribe in Sunburnia is ME. To support my claim I present for you some examples of my exceedingly dull work....
1) On December 28 I wrote this pathetic drone about Cooking. In case you hadn’t noticed it was actually a criticism of John Howard. [Ed: Thanks Hugh, I had]
2) On January 4 I wrote this nauseating suck piece about How Clever My Kids Are.
3) On January 11 I wrote this awful dirge about the Magic of Moving House.
4) Yesterday I penned this weird parody involving Naughty Children and Weapons of Mass Destruction.
That incontrovertible body of evidence should prove conclusively that I have nothing at all to say and, as such, am the most boring writer in Australia.
I therefore require from you a full and sincere apology for your rash allegation or I shall be forced to consult my legal representatives at the firm Bung, Grabbit & Sue.
Yours sincerely
H. McKay
Dullard
Apology cheerfully tendered.
Just a word of advice Hugh. Resign and start a Blog instead!
