Following on from the Frank Bruno/The Sun thread

[WSM]

I was one of the mumsnetters who emailed The Sun yesterday in protest at their 'Bonkers Bruno' story. Today I have had a bog-standard email reply (prob an auto responder). Have others had this ?

[Tinker]

I did too WSM. Put it on the original thread WSM.

Got this one as well

Dear

Thank you for your email about Frank Bruno. The Sun has for many years been one of Frank's greatest supporters, and we would never wish to upset him in any way. I hope you saw in this morning's Sun that we have launched a Fund For Frank, which will raise money for people who have the misfortune to suffer mental illness like Frank. The Sun has donated £10,000 to start the Fund, and large donations have already been made by senior boxing and entertainment figures including Frank Warren and Richard Branson. In this way, The Sun hopes to make a positive contribution to improve the lives of those who like Frank are having treatment. Thank you again for taking the time and trouble to send us your point of view, which has been noted carefully by our staff.

With best wishes,

SUN LETTERS EDITOR

I just got the standard one they send out, odious aren't they ...

Anyway Tinker, you've done your bit and got us to do ours so stop procrastinating (sometimes I can use big words, and in the right places, although not convinced I can spell them) and start revising !

Or, to use our family phrase, stop pencil balancing - you know it IS possible to stand a pencil on its sharp end and next time you try will be the one...

I've just rec'd the 2nd one too Tinker, exactly the same as yours except for the name obv ! Ever feel like you're being fobbed off ?
