DHSS LETTERS ------------ The following extracts are perfectly genuine - taken from actual letters sent to the DHSS (Social Security). Although rather crude they are written in good faith by the senders. * Our lavatory seat is broken in half and is now in three pieces. * Can you please tell me when our repairs are going to be done as my wife is about to become an expectant mother. * I want some repairs doing to my cooker as it backfired and burnt my knob off. * The toilet is blocked and we can't bath the children until it is cleared. * The man next door has a large erection in his back garden which is unsightly and dangerous. * Will you please send someone to mend our broken path as my wife tripped and fell on it and she is now pregnant. * Our kitchen floor is very damp and we have two children and we would like a third so will you please send somebody round to do something about it. * Would you please repair our toilet. My son pulled the chain and the box fell on his head. * Mrs. Smith has no clothes and has had none for over a year. The clergy have been visiting her............. * I need money to buy special medicine for my husband as he is unable to masturbate his food. * In reply to your letter, I have already cohabited with your officer with no results so far. * I am pleased to inform you that my husband who was reported missing is dead. * Mrs. Adams has asked me to collect her money as she is going in to hospital to have her overtures out. * Sir, I am forwarding my marriage certificate and two children - one of which is a mistake as you will see. * My husband is diabetic and has to take insolence regular but he finds he is lethargic to it. * Unless I get my husbands maintenance money soon I shall be obliged to live an immortal life. * The children have been off school because there is a lot of measles about and I had them humanised. * Please forward my money at once as I have fallen into errors with my landlord and milkman. * You have changed my little boy into a little girl. Will this matter? * Mrs Brown only THINKS she's ill, but believe me she is nothing but a hypodermic. * In accordance with your instructions I have given birth to twins in the enclosed envelope. * I want my sick pay quick. I have been in bed under the doctor for a week and he is doing me no good. If things don't improve I shall get another doctor. * I do not get any money from my son. He is in the army and his regiment is at present manuring on Salisbury Plain. * Milk is wanted for my baby and the father is unable to supply it. * Re your dental enquiry. The teeth on top are alright but those on my bottom are hurting dreadfully. * I am very annoyed to find you have branded my son illiterate. This is a lie as I married his father a week before he was born. * I am sorry I omitted to put down all my children's names. This was due to contraceptional circumstances. * I wish to complain that my father hurt his ankle very badly when he put his foot in the hole in his back passage. * The lavatory is blocked. This is caused by the boys next door throwing their balls on the roof. * This is to let you know there is a smell coming from the man next door. * The toilet seat is cracked - where do I stand? -- Vectored by Moose Mansions (http://www.splange.freeserve.co.uk/)
