A Letter From the Country

Dere frend

ows things. i see be the papers
that they aint goin to put no tunel
under the english chanel becos its
goin to cost too much i aint blamin
em fer that becos i reckons a job
like that wud cost more than tuppence
but at the same time me and bill
smith been talkin it over an it
reminds us that we cud do with a bit
of a drain under the road between 'is
place an mine that road aint no english
chanel tho it looks like it wen
we gets a bit of a shower the flud
warters washin orl the metel orf the
road and i mite put it up to the govt
that a bit of a drain pipe there aint
goin to cost near as much as an english
chanel tunel

Any ways wots this idear of a
tunel bill smith sez that if nachure
put a tunel there instid of the eng-
ineers wud be beatin their brains
tryin to wurk out 'ow to cover up the
tunel an put a sea on top of it
bill smith sez man is alwix wantin
to do somethin difrint wantin to make
mountings out of planes an planes
out of mountings bill smith reeds a
good bit any ways if the gov
feels like doin somethin difrint wot
about that drane

i see patersons wun the tenis in eng-
land when e comes back we got a
man up ere will giv im a bit iv a go
'es a wonder if e can only manidge to
serve inter the rite paddick but at
present e as a chopped 'and
hoppin you are the same

Yours truly
