Sir,
It has been brought to my attention that, following a recent success in the highly regarded 19th Photography Competition, the only thing standing between me and the first ever Triple Crown award here at Boadicea’s Chariot is a positive decision regarding the Creative Writing Competition wisely and skillfully set by your good self and closing in the next few days.
A lifetime spent in the business of marketing valuable and useful technology to reluctant corporate personnel has taught me the value of careful and thorough preparation of one’s case. I offer the following observations merely as background to what will obviously be a difficult and demanding decision which you will be required to make following December 28, 2011.
