Dear TRADER,
Dear TRADER,
WHY DO THE children of celebrities think that they are celebrities too just because one of their
parents are? I???m a
terrorist, and if my kids thought they could blow up a building or an
airplane just because I can, someone could get seriously hurt. Come on celebrities, get off the drugs and start sorting your kids out!

They say that every man is a potential rapist. Well, I'm not. I'm a convicted one!

Dear TRADER,
Dear Trader,
My fiance is an avid reader of THE TRADER. We are due to be married on the 25th of March at an expensive ceremony at a top resort on Koh Lanta, but unfortunately I can???t make it to the wedding as I???m busy in Phuket with my new 26 year old girlfriend. Could you please print this letter and make her aware of this. Cheers.

Dear TRADER,
They say that "curiosity killed the cat"
Well, it didn't kill my cat. I know for a fact that it was that bastard who lives across the road. And I think he poisoned my dog too!

Dear TRADER,
In one of her songs, "Adele" the overweight British pop singer and she- monster, asks the question ???should I walk on pavements???
My answer would be yes. In fact, you might consider breaking into a jog next time you go past the pie shop.

Dear TRADER,
Following your recent article about road painting in Thailand, you may be interested to see the new model that we're adopting for krabi town.
I'm convinced that by
following this excellent British example, we can make road travel even safer in Thailand.

Dear TRADER,
I recently took my Thai driving test in Trang, and while reading through the Thai Highway Code rule book, I was unable to find the bit that says women motorists are allowed to pull out in front of oncoming traffic on busy roads while checking their make-up. Perhaps my copy was a misprint.

Dear TRADER,
Dear Trader,
I don't know what all the fuss is about with
America finally having a black President. Zimbabwe have had one for more than 20 years, and he's shit.

Dear TRADER,
Could you please help me settle an argument between my Mum and Dad. My Mum says that cross eyed crooner and ivory tickler Barry Manilow is a handsome, sexy and talented entertainer, whereas my Dad says that he???s a cock. Which one of them is right?
