WHY is it that the older generation are penalised? So many in the press and on television give contacts by email address – but not all older folk have computers or the brain power to learn how to use one.
I type my letters and enjoy each day when the postman calls.
With so many young people texting and using 4 instead of the word ‘for’, and U instead of ‘you’, spelling will get worse and letter writing will cease.
Try to buy carbon paper and today’s shop assistants have never heard of it.
Sadly machines have replaced an attractive young secretary – I suppose I will now be called sexist as well as old.
