" Did you receive my beautiful gift in the mail ?

Wow ! What an opening line . Who could resist such a statement . You may have conjured up a romantic picture of a long passionate relationship coming to a climax... but no its only a letter from yet another charity . How low can they sink ? VERY LOW . Today they arent content just giving you a guilt  trip to get a donation , today they actively play the mind fuck game . Loaded statements putting the onus on you making a polite response . They send you a small gift in the mail and you feel obliged to respond with a donation . Its a nasty trick especially with the older generation who feel the need for politeness that stems from a society we would find naive by today's standards . Actually this is stupid ,  they have sent me MONEY in the envelope now Ive opened it   !  What sort of  mind game is this ? Giving me money ? This is a like a confidence trick . A nasty mind trick . How low . Yes im mad !!!  They state how much this 12p could do abroad , well dont give it to me then you stupid.....
