Hmmmm …
Did I tell you that — occasionally — I’ll knock out a letter to all of my neighbours?
I knock out a letter to my neighbours, occasionally.
The most recent one?
Was about the amount of letterbox theft we’ve been getting, recently.
With a couple of neighbours suffering identity theft as a result.
That recent letter suggested that our landlords should move the external letterbox from outside the building: to either individual letterboxes, by/in each front door, OR to a similar bulk letterbox. But INSIDE the building, so there’s less temptation for opportunistic theft
The letter’s had various shades of response: mostly positive and lots of nervousness. But also saw a friend of one neighbour banging on my door, last night, under the impression I’d named her and blamed her for lord knows what.
Lord knows what brought THAT on … !
At ANY rate … ? At any rate, I’ve suggested to my neighbours that those deeply affected go on the record: and let the Brentwood Gazette know how they feel. AND what they feel is to blame.
I hope they do. I, for one, know how helpful the paper can be.
