SIR – I was in the same class as George Cowley at Prince Henry’s Grammar School in Evesham.
A timid pallid youth who collected butterflies.
He was never bullied.
In the fourth year the teachers asked us to treat him gently – then suddenly he was absent, never to return.
Not unintelligent but quiet, who would never speak first.
So what have we now, someone who writes in capitals (wants to be noticed) and deluges the local newspaper with banalities.
Such is life.
