Hello there,
I have recently decided that enough is enough, I'm going to stop eating meat; not only is it unhealthy, but it is the poor flesh from an innocent animal. I seem to be having a bit of trouble fighting the temptation though, and was wondering if I could discuss a few issues I'm having with vegetarianism, with you?

Thanking you
A. Richards

Dear Alex

Thank you for your email. We have lots of resources we can send you to help with your decisions If you have any specific issues don’t hesitate to email me. Also if you would like to give me your full address details I will send you our starter pack.

Regards

Ray.

Ray,

Thank you for your reply. What exactly does the starter pack contain?
The main problem I'm having is a rather silly one. I used to eat meat, and I sort of felt I was connecting with the animals, which I loved.
I chose to become vegetarian due to the fact that this connection between the animal and I was null and void due to the fact that the animal had been slaughtered...so I could get through the day on a full stomach.
I am struggling to not eat meat, as I like the feeling of that connection, although I know it's wrong. I was wondering if you could help; maybe by suggesting some new ways of connecting, without eating. I will also search for some ways to do this.

Thanking you
A. Richards

Hi Alex

Yes your starter pack consists of healthy eating advice,nutritional.reasons for going veggie etc. there is of course lots if info on our website regarding specific areas of concern for example animal welfare issues and environmental aspects of our diet. I think the more knowledge you acquire regarding vegetarianism can help to connect with animals in general.

Regards

Ray,

I will certainly consider the starter pack, and will get back to you with my address when I am ready.

I (think I) have found a way to connect with the animals, without eating them. There is this thing called 'Beastiality'. I am

not entirely sure what it involves, but my friend said it was about adopting an animal as a pet to reduce the guilt you feel. I will certainly research it before I partake in the process. Do you happen to have any information on this? this whole connecting with the animals thing is starting to hurt my brain.

Thanking you

A. Richards

Hi Alex

Yes I would be glad to send you some general information on vegetarianism and some basic advice regarding a meat free diet. I think the animal connection issue will also become clearer after looking into changing your eating habits. Haven't heard of the beastiality connection but if you let me have your full address I will send you some resources to assist.

Regards

Ray.

'The Door'

From: Alex Richards

To: ITV viewer services

Dear ITV,

I recently viewed your television entitled 'the door', starring Dean Gaffney, Louisa Lytton, Coronation Street’s Jennie McAlpine, Boyzone’s Keith Duffy, television presenter Michael Underwood and The Saturday’s singer Frankie Sandford. And although I'm thrilled that you've managed to convince these A-list celebrities to take a break from their ignited careers and take part in this show, I have some 'beef' with you.

Throughout the show I managed to get the jist of the show, and the importance of 'the door' in the structure of the show. But, I noticed around 15 minutes in, that there was in fact a second door; much different from the first door, it was a darker shade than the first door, yet the first door has the show centred around it, and named after it, the second door is not mentioned in the show name, or the synopsis. Maybe there is some subtle subconscious racism within this show? I don't know.

The addition of the second door confused me quite a lot, there's me thinking the show is about a door, when in fact, it's about doors. I'm sure I'm not the only one mentally displaced by this error on ITV's behalf. I'm sure the show would be better off named 'the doors'. But I know what you're thinking! Some people may be confused, and think it's about the late Jim Morrison's band. So I suggest you rename the show 'The doors; not the Jim Morrison band, but a show about going through doors'. Not only would this eliminate all confusion, but it would be increasingly enticing upon first glance.

A reply would be appreciated, as I have taken time out of my schedule to write to you.

Thanking You

A. Richards
