Dear Mr Murphy,

We have been reading Mr Ellery’s blog from Sanga and wish to make a complaint.

Mr Ellery says that he is not working very hard and that he spends a good deal of his time sitting in the sunshine, killing snakes, taking trips to town and fiddling around on his computer. All he seems to have done is refix a door on a toilet and build a chicken house. Really! Mr Ellery should not be having holidays from All Hallows when he should be working!

And don’t you think he’s getting a bit old to be a Boy Scout?

Yours sincerely,

Mr and Mrs D.I.S. Gruntled

Dear Mr and Mrs Gruntled,

Thank you for your letter about Mr Ellery at Sanga.

I too have been reading Mr Ellery’s blog with increasing dismay and concern. Please be assured that I shall be speaking to Mr Ellery in the strongest possible terms when he gets back from Kenya.

I shall also be asking him about the half-eaten apple, two dead mice and 12 dirty coffee cups that were found in his desk when Mrs Barber arrived to take his place.

Yours sincerely,

Mr. Murphy

    Dear Mr. Ellery,

    We love the beard (Laura & Milly)

    We've signed you up for a Gok Wan make over when you come home (Mrs.Moulton)

    Why didn't you eat the snake? (Nick)
    You could use the snake skin to make some cowboy boots to go with your hat!!

    You look very brown Mr. Ellery, are you using fake tan? (Max)

    You are relaxing very much. (Inigo)

    Why don't the juniors have many desks? Are you buying any for them? (Amelia)

    Was the mummy snake in your tent? (Tasia)

    Have you been able to play a cello out there? (Alex T.)

    Dear Mr. Ellery,

    I like your beard but you look a bit like Santa! Will you keep it when you come back to AH? Why did you write the letter, was it a joke??

    The snake probably wasn't dangerous, so it shouldn't have been killed.

    Best wishes from Archie Ingall
