Andy Richardson: Surprise in the postbag that wasn’t from a malcontent

And so we go to Gillian Tanner. A lady – lady, no less, not a mere woman – who was moved to write to Weekend Towers. And while our mail sack – virtual and physical – is usually full of invective from people with axes to grind, who imagine we’re fancy dans who won’t go near a restaurant unless it’s brandishing two Michelin stars, who believe we won’t interview a schelbrity unless they’re willing to send us signed posters for our office walls and who consider we are sufficiently confident to wear spats (that bit’s true, we do wear spats, but only on Sundays) – it is seldom filled with the eloquent exegesis of such readers as Gillian. Until now.
