An open letter to someone I admire

Today's lyric:

"The lyrics aren't supposed to mean that much
They're just a vehicle for a lovely voice
They're not supposed to mean that much."

Mansun: "Open letter to the lyrical trainspotter"
From the album: "Attack of the grey
lantern"



Dear Witchy

a) I know you generally eschew competitiveness (see Comments); and
b) there is a (photographic equipment voucher) prize for the winner and runner-up of this competition *; but
c) with your natural empathy for, affinity towards and symbiosis with the rural, bucolic and transient beauty of our planet and this England (fetches bucket); and
d) your eye for the quick shot and imagery; and
e) the unassailable fact that you can operate a camera as well as anyone else I know; and
f) (and here's the clincher, I hope) the fact that if you won the 2006 entry (whose theme is "Weather") you would be contributing with your own inestimable talents to the very worthy cause of "Children in need", plus you could auction the prize amongst your faithful Familiars, with the proceeds going to your charity of choice, so that everyone profs?); soooo
* g) might you be persuaded to park your principle on this one occasion?

I shall be seeking support in the Comments box of your delightful site.

Yours faithfully
