آیا چیزی را از دست داده‌ام؟: نامه‌های منتشر نشده از دیلی تلگراف

Every year, the collection of the best letters that didn’t quite make it into the Telegraph – because just too left-field, outrageous or hilarious for an august Letters page – offers an alternative review of the year. For this fifth volume the potential agenda is just as enticing as ever, with Telegraph readers variously waggish, whimsical or just plain steamed-up about Chris Huhne’s speeding points, a new Pope, the Royal baby and mansion taxes. Once again, it will be one of the humour bestsellers of the year. The hilarious annual collection of readers' letters that were just too left-field, outrageous or witty to make the pages of the Telegraph. "Sir? Two days of news about the Duchess of Cambridge, and you haven't yet told us about her hospital gown. Who designed it? How much did it cost? And has she worn it before?"--Sir? Sede vacante has not always been connected with the death of a pope. When I was growing up in the 1970s we would use the expression at home to denote that the bathroom was free.' -- Sir? Being a devoted husband, as well as a staunch and active member of the Conservative Party, I'd be grateful to learn what further changes it will adopt, especially in regard to monogamy. My wife could do with a bit more help around the house." A letters page may seem antiquated in an era of texting and tweeting, yet the Telegraph's letter writers often bemused, sometimes furious, always erudite are a breed apart. Here are their wise, waggish and unpublished opinions on everything from gay marriage ('Sir Gays should be able to marry so they can suffer like the rest of us') to royal babies ('Sir Maybe the hospital could release pink or blue smoke when the baby is born'). Every Year, The Collection Of The Best Letters That Didn't Quite Make It Into The Telegraph - Because Just Too Left-field, Outrageous Or Hilarious For An August Letters Page - Offers An Alternative Review Of The Year.
