Letters to the Editor
We Make Mistakes
Dear Editor,
Thank you for printing my letter, but couldn't you have printed the first one instead or mentioned what I am trying to do. Just one mention of the email address [email protected] would have been constructive and of assistance! Why couldn't you have told people to contact me at:
P.O. box 460
Dallas, Vic 3047
if they were victims, it would have been one small helping hand, to try and put a stop to these cowardly bosses!
Regards Kaye
