The pedant in me can see it should be sumfing

Gods have mercy!
I take it next door is not an 82 year old ex-colonel English teacher?

You could respond

"You may certainly have . I do not require payment, however I would request that you re-write your request in legible English"

It is very sad isn't it.

Do you think it is laziness or inability to spell?

i couldnt work out the reply to my text....

Thaqw m8 that just

alotmet

no kerrymum the note was handwritten

I actually don't understand it.

texts havent the ability to be pushed through my letterbox

Ah but at least they are thinking green!

thank you mate, just the job for the allotment.......you have many and varied friends

Thanks mate that's just the job for my allotment

Think you're being cruel on this one actually. Patently clear that whoever wrote it knows no better.

do they talk like that in rl?

pedantry is funny and witty when it isn't cruel

oh I actually think I can be cruel seeing as I have had to listen to him beat up his girlfriend on more than one occassion

fair enough to be cruel about abusive behaviour. Although calling the police would probably be more useful.

But there is clearly either an intellectual or an educational defecit in that note.

It's not the same as taking the piss of an organisation not knowing the difference between less and fewer, because they should.

Nasty,Nasty, Have you thought, perhaps they have trouble spelling, no, not nearly so funny

I did call the police and I have given him said item.

I dont actually think he has trouble spelling, I think its just how the young of today write notes

I do however take on board it could be construde as nasty so I apologise to all those I have offended

I work with dyslexics a lot and that note smacks of dyslexia to me - the use of e in "ples" is a common characteristic as is the use of u and r and "bin in" instead of "binning".

Fair enough be mean to the nasty sod in general terms, but picking on something he can't help is mean!
