Dear Marge

Dear Marge

 

My husband and I have been married for ten years,

What happened last week left me in tears.

As I drove to work my car juddered to a halt,

I walked back home to get my husband to sort out the fault.

When I got home he was in the bedroom,couldn't believe what I saw,

He was parading around in my high heels and red dress with my mother- in - law.

He was made redundant from his job on the oil rigs in Inverness,

Since then he had been feeling down hearted and worthless.

Please can you help,yours sincerely Sylvia Jewel.

 

Dear Mrs.Sylvia Jewel.

A car stalling could mean dirty fuel.

Yours sincerily Marge.

"Dear Sylvia Jewel, life can be cruel,
But earning a living in Inverness
Could drive anyone to high heels and a dress!"
