I have no money

Very good.

 

There was a British journalist who published a book of his works like this a few years ago. He literally wrote hundreds of very silly letters to companies, which just got more ludicrous each time they replied. Now then, what was his name???

 

 

EDIT: http://www.robincooper.co.uk/twlreturn.php

 

Sending bizarre letters to various bodies was a quiet little hobby of mine for many years. So, even though his two books were really funny, I sort of resented it because they became so well-known. These days if I send an odd letter, I know there's a fair chance the person receiving it will have come across Cooper's stuff, so I feel like a poor imitation.

 

I still can't resist a reply paid envelope, though.

Surely you could publish a few extracts of your endeavours for us, here? :)
