Hope you like it!

Dear John,

I"m so pleased this avenue is available for me to asked you advice and opinion to tackle an issue that keeps cropping up whilst i"m with my APAT colleagues.

Being a reasonable shy person I never feel comfy correcting people when they are mis-pronouncing my username.

Waz1892 was created from a shortening of my name Warren and the birth year of my football team. My non Apat friends throughout my life have always pronounced it Woz. The prouncement in lower case of "w-a-z" had never been an "issue" before APAT. It was even read as Waz on sky tv by the legend that is tikay, even then I emailed in and said it was Woz, and he told to me to spell it correctly! ( I forgive him as he continued to say can"t spell but played that hand very well!)

Your advice please and I"m hoping the millions of loyal followers you have the word will spread

Yours warren "Waz1892"

Dear Wuss

It must be horrible when people get your name wrong. I have to say it"s not something I have experienced myself, seeing as how every Tom, Dick & Harry is called John, but I can sympathize with your predicament. Someone who did have a similar problem was Lisa Minnelli. Perhaps you could deal with it by singing the correct version:

Anyway, wouldn"t an abbreviation of your name would be War, not Waz. You clearly don"t know how to spell your own name (as has been pointed out before), so I wouldn"t try anything tricky, like cycling or hairdressing. At this stage, you are probably stuck with the one you have assumed, so perhaps you should advise your APAT cohorts to pronounce it in lower case, as you report that this has worked successfully for you in the past.

Dear John,

With the recent interest in golf on the TV at the moment I thought I"d seek your advice on having a go at becoming a "Golf Pro".

Obviously, without really knowing my standard of play it would be unfair for you to comment so here"s a brief heads up of my golfing history:

I"ve only ever played proper golf twice, but have played pitch and putt a few times, and played crazy golf quite a bit....
However, the most important piece of knowledge you may find helpful is that I used to own a pair of golf socks, and did get a hole in one!

Eagerly awaiting your comments,

thinsy.

Dear John,

Thankyou for your considered response to my last question.

If you dont mind terribly, i have an argument that needs settling with the captain of my cricket team.

He seems to think that drinking 13 bottles of lager and a large amount of Jack Daniels is NOT the best way to spend the night before a cricket match, as it may effect my bowling performance.

I called him a tit.

Who is right?

Much love

Stu
