"Hi ***

That would depend greatly on the discount. Naturally, fighting crime is a low paying vocation and I have to subsidise this with removing the dark side from dishes at weekends. My availability is high during the week as I can record Doctors and I imagine this would suit your off peak times, although I don't wish to invite myself to your house as such.

I look forward to matching times with you and thank you for such a fast response.

Kind regards,

T. Lander, esq."

Great news! Meanwhile...

"Dear Sir/Madam/proprietary type,

After careful consideration of your website I am now keen to know if you have any rooms that don't overlook the sea. I realise this is a popular trap for tourists but there is nothing worse in my opinion than waking up and feeling like you're trapped in a boat.

In fact I would be willing to pay more for a room that overlooks a firm, solid field. Is this possible at all? I look forward to your reply.

Kind regards,

T. Lander, esq."
