Review
‘These unpublished missives are as whimsical, hilariously off-message and downright rude as one has come to expect from the Telegraph’s discerning readers…an essential Christmas gift.’ (Lancashire Evening Post )
‘The ideal present for those who relish the querulous, quirky and quaint.’ (Oxford Times )
‘Extremely enjoyable reading…there is a great deal of subtle English wit’ (Good Book Guide )

Product Description
The third book in the bestselling and hilarious series of ‘Am I Alone . . . ?’ books From the Royal wedding to Ricky Gervais at the Golden Globes, and from Ed Miliband to Wikileaks, Telegraph readers offer their maverick and hilarious take on the year’s events, in the letters the paper didn’t publish, because they were just too off-the-wall, too outrageous, or too waggish for an august Letters page. The first two volumes of unpublished letters to the Daily Telegraph, Am I Alone in Thinking? and I Could Go On . . . have both been Christmas bestsellers, and sold well in excess of 100,000 copies. Once again, it will be an essential Christmas present to give or to receive. SIR - I was disappointed that Kate Middleton has declined the offer of a Morgan sports car for her wedding; I often joke that I was conceived in one. SIR - If the expression ‘jungle drums’ is racially offensive, is it also racially offensive to have a TomTom in your car? SIR - Whilst posting some letters on Sunday my heart leapt when I noticed that it said Your Mail Will Be Collected NOW. Then I realised that the plate stating the day was upside down.

A Christmas treat or it would be if we had the will power to wait till 25/12. Our great fear is that the Telegraph will stop publishing this title.

Our country is full of clever, witty people and after a surfeit of bad news it was a delight to read the opinions of people,obviously wise, who agree with me. I thought it would be interesting but I actually laughed out loud and insisted in reading them to everyone friends, children and grandchildren, all of whom understood and appreciated them. Long may readers letter pages continue. Tilly.

I purchased these items as gifts for friends and family. I thoroughly enjoyed reading one of them before I wrapped and sent it and the feed back from the recipients has been soooo favourable! I believe this to be one of the most enjoyable presents to have been received by these friends and family.

Good fun
I haven't read this myself, as it was a present for a friend, but she said she laughed a lot and recognised a lot from her parents' daily newspaper.

As expected
If you like the letters page in the Telegraph you'll like most of this. Some letters are just weird and pointless. Some are touching or witty. Read more
