G'day all,

Longtime lurker and first time poster.

I've wandered across from 7days letters section.
Got sick of writing my agitation letters and never getting posted.

Seems like this is a pretty open slather forum?

G'day Bongo,

Welcome! So what are you agitated about?

cheers,

not so much agitated, but agitating.

trying to stir up some free thinking from the stale media regurgitators here.

I said open slather before, but I didn't expect cottaging and felching on day 1

You failed to get your letters into 7 Days?? Blimey - they used to print everything they received......

Either 7 Days has changed or your letter-writing capability isn't up to their standard - in which case, on behalf of The Bored members, welcome to Hell.

exactly - we used to sit with urban dictonary or profanisaurus and choose stupid words to be included in a letter. Don't think we failed once.

Ha ha! It was a fluke as it was the only time I have ever written to The Times. IIRC it was to take exception to a Peter Brooks 'cartoon' of King Abdullah of Jordan when he came to power. All rather unusual for me really.
