There's
nothing better than freaking out the local councillors
with a letter
from the dead. And that's exactly what we've done in this article. Sent
from the cemetery to the Repairs Department of the council in order to
get the water tap fixed at the entrance. Dear Sir/Madam,
We are writing
as a
community to complain about the lack of water facilities available to
us and our honoured visitors. It makes us
look bad when they come to pay a visit and they cannot use the tap at
the entrance. I know that some of us may have been tenants of the
council in the past, and most of us still are in a way. But to treat
us with this amount of disrespect is not funny. We cannot explain to
our guests why there are no water facilities available. It's not an
easy task commuting to the Service Point to pay our water rates. It
would frighten the living daylights out of the local community, so we
hope that you can accept our apologies for this.
As tenants of
the Council,
we presumed that we would receive the same level of treatment from
you as we did when we were alive. Sad to see, that this is not the
case. All we want is a fully functioning tap at the entrance for the
use of our guests, some of whom visit us everyday.
As for the
upkeep of the
grounds, we're very happy in that respect. Please pass on our thanks
to the parks and amenities department.
We also hear
that you are
running out of space, that may be true on ground level. Down here,
there's plenty of room to hold a ceilidh.
So, the main
point of this
letter is to ask for the relevant department to come and visit us one
day, soon hopefully, and fix our water problems. We'd be very
grateful.
Yours faithfully
