Dear Anne Peters

Thank you for your letter of 7th May, and the cheque for £10.00. At first I was going to return it, as I don't normally accept charity. However on this occasion I decided to keep it as compensation for a bad experience I had the only time I ever tried one of your Lamb Roasts.

Turning to the matter of your Willy Whales it would seem that I owe you an apology. My wife has since bought another packet and you are quite right, the packet does state that they are 'crunchy golden whale shapes'. I must say I feel you are being a bit ambitious in likening them to a whale though, because if Willy Whales are indeed whale-shaped then the whale in question belongs to a species of whale which I certainly haven't come across. In fact to my eyes your Willy Whales are just as likely to be taken for willies as they are for whales. It is quite amazing how one's opinion can change once in possession of all the facts, isn't it. Before I received your letter I thought that Willy Whales were turkey pieces that tasted a bit like fish. Now I know they are made of fish however my perception of them is completely different, because I can categorically say that they are fish pieces which taste a bit like turkey. Do you think this could be because you deep-fry them in the same fat in which you fry your turkey products?


Yours faithfully
