Shouldn't rolf be tying that kangaroo down? sport.
no sign of two little boys either.
Posted by Sul, 9 years ago:
 
ROLF ROCKS! Leave him the fuck alone! And TLB is one of the best songs ever written!
Posted by cal, 9 years ago:
 
hahaha - that's fucking genius

You should win the turner prize
Posted by Grim..., 9 years ago:
 
Hmm - do you think Rolf will have the technical know-how to open a .pdf?
He is old, you know...
Posted by Sul, 9 years ago:
 
I sent it by snail mail. I have also sent letters to Heinz and KP. Oh and an email to Interbrew. It's my new hobby.

I'll upload them all soon.

The minimal use of colour is what attracts me to this.

It is indeed a fine work of art. ( you should put the price up to at least 25 quid sul!)

I am going to write to Wheat Crunchies, because on the back of the packet they give you an address and ask you to "Share your Wheat Crunchie Experience"...
Posted by cal, 9 years ago:
 
you should all email innocent drinks: dejavu@innocentdrinks.co.uk

they want to know about things you really like. infact, they are lovely people and you should all just say hello: thisiswhatIthink@innocentdrinks.co.uk
Posted by Rosie, 9 years ago:
 
Tell us about your Wheat Crunchie experience then Grim.... Was it an experience with the spicy tomato flavour??
Posted by Sul, 9 years ago:
 
"Cal from www.iamcal.com told me to say hello

Hello

Thanks

Dan Sullivan
Art dealer to the stars"
Posted by Sul, 9 years ago:
 
Wheat Crunchies rock so hard its unbeleivable!
Posted by cal, 9 years ago:
 
erm, thanks sul
Posted by Sul, 9 years ago:
 
np ;)

i would write a letter to whoever makes monster munch and ask them to put them back to their original size.
I would also contact whoever makes the little variety packs of cereal, and ask them why the hell they include crappy boxes of,for example- Honey Nut Shit, and why don't they sub the crap nut ones for Rice Crispies - that everyone likes.
Posted by Rosie, 9 years ago:
 
My argument would be that by freeing up the cupboard space used by boxes of Honey Nut Crap, you could replenish the void with some of thier better, more popular products. Ie: Rice Crispies, Sugar Puffs and Ricicles.
Posted by Grim..., 9 years ago:
 
And why don't they make variety packs bigger, so a normal human could enjoy a decent sized breakfast without mixing two together.

And Starburst should be told to fuck off and call their sweets 'Opal Fruits' again.
Posted by Rosie, 9 years ago:
 
Yeah! What is all that "Starburst" shit? Their the same fucking thing as opal fruits, aren't they?

Can you still get Nestles Lucky Charms - "They're magically delicious"......?
Posted by Sul, 9 years ago:
 
Stop fannying around and write to them then!
Posted by Rosie, 9 years ago:
 
OOOOoo! - You're being rather pro-active today,sul.

Whats up?!
Posted by Sul, 9 years ago:
 
I just want to start a spate of consumer feedback things getting bormbarded with funny letters, thats all.
Posted by Rosie, 9 years ago:
 
I think its a really cool idea.I definatly like the letter suggesting hot tins of spaghetti and stuff. You may get a load of vouchers for your efforts!!!!

You should make a chart of what you get back from these companys. You might even get a years supply of hot coffee for coming up with new inventions!

We could have a competition of who gets the best feedback from these companies.....!!

:-)

Are you allowed to 'doctor' products and then complain?
Posted by Rosie, 9 years ago:
 
No! Thats cheating.

(I once found a pubic hair in my cream bun)
Posted by cal, 9 years ago:
 
err, yumm
Posted by Sul, 9 years ago:
 
euphemism?
Posted by plindoe, 9 years ago:
 
oh ym god, your a fucking genius, pissed myself reading them, i hoop you do get a reply and not fobbed off as a lunatic, keep em coming (or going as it should be, whatever)
Posted by Redmaiden, 9 years ago:
 
nooo rolf doesn't shag chickens or whatever you've depicted him having sexual intercourse with *shocked*
Posted by Sul, 9 years ago:
 
Are you blind? its a kangaroo! And I didnt draw it. That seriously was Kerry's entry in a small inner-office drawing competition. It won her a fiver!
Posted by Sul, 9 years ago:
 
Oh and here are 2 emails I sent I manged to print them off but didnt save them so until I get around to retyping them they're in this 1 PDF. Obviously the first one was a ripoff of what matt posted a couple of months back but hopefully he doesnt mind.

My housemate Sarah found a hair in a bourbon so wrote to complain. Royal Mail sent her letter back saying the address didn't exist.

It's all lies. Lies I tell you....Lies!

Wishing you both a joyous weekend.

Posted by Grim..., 9 years ago:
 
You Ill mate?
Posted by Sul, 9 years ago:
 
Not been sleeping. Nothing serious.
Posted by Grim..., 9 years ago:
 
I have actually been medically certified as an Insomniac, so I know what you mean.

I currently get up for work at 7am, work until 6-9pm, do computer stuff or go out from 7ish to 11ish, come home (or carry on) with computer stuff from 11 until 1am, get into bed and read for about 2 hours, then sleep for 4 hours and get up again.

This has been going on for about four months now and my body's dealing with it quite well - however I'm worried that it'll give up and break soon.
My doctor says it's nothing to worry about.

I've got sleeping pills but if I take one I still don't get to sleep until about 3am but then I can't get up!
Cheers doc! =]
Posted by Sul, 9 years ago:
 
KP and Heinz have responded. I have scanned and uploaded. Please see:

letters.pressingbuttons.co.uk

Posted by reitsma, 9 years ago:

i loved the heinz reply - very detailed response!
so, did you get any cool brochures with it?

:o)
Posted by chandler, 9 years ago:
 
Hey I complained to Heinz about some soup that was not to my liking last week and they just sent me a £3 Heinz voucher. and I only have to buy ONE heinz product when I use it. So one can of soup and the rest on chocolate and crisps I think. mmm mmm

Heinz Salad Cream: Serving Suggestions
5-A-DAY The Heinz Way
The Heinz Sauce Collection
Heinz: Meals with Heinz Baked Beans
Heinz Pizza-Pleasure
Heinz Microwavable Potato Slices
Weight Watchers from Heinz: New Range of Products

And

The Bean Story
Posted by chandler, 9 years ago:
 
Is that like ToyStory but with beans cos that would just suck
Posted by Sul, 9 years ago:
 
I dont know. I havent read it yet. Will let you know.
Posted by cal, 9 years ago:
 
the reply from mcvities was a complete fob-off. impressed with heinz though
Posted by chandler, 9 years ago:
 
you praise them and get leaflets
I abuse them and get money off

There is a lesson here somewhere but not sure it is the right message
Posted by Meatwood Flack, 2 years ago:
 
I wish these were still up here. I have no idea what Sul wrote to Rolf Harris but I'm sure it was good.
Posted by syl, 2 years ago:
