[rummum]

love from.... only joking

how did you start it?

Dear Mrs *

is that OK

if you started it

dear miss blah
then you end yours sincerely

if you started dear madam/sir whatever
then you end with yours faithfully

yeah, then it's sincerely

then it's

Yours sincerely

Looking forward to hear from you

or

Sincerely (if it's a thank you letter)

TBH I find most "endings" sound too much like a 16 yr old victorian girl who has fall in love, but then, so many people find it offensive not to use them that I stick to "sincerely" as it seems the less flowerly of them.

Oops sorry, took me years to write the response

Thanks.... I knew I could rely on you lot...

One more question... is it acceptable to use tempus sans ITC font... size 16...

Never more than 12 for text IMO, though 12 in some fonts is already very big. Unless you are trying to be a bit creative than every size and font is permitted

than=then

hmm i would stick to a font of 14 MAX preferably 12 though

I'd stick to 12 Times Roman, dear. Guffaws at her own inadequacies.

thanks everyone...
I tend to use a big font because I find it hard to see the smaller ones!
