Letters of Note is a captivating blog dedicated to gathering fascinating correspondence of all kinds.
Some are letters from the rich and famous, and it's touching to see those who have replied thoughtfully to unprovoked, and sometimes needy, correspondence (among them, Iggy Pop). Others speak loudly of the character of their authors - Mark Twain's could surely be by no one else, and if I'd received George Bernard Shaw's missive, I think I'd have curled up and died, rather than give such a spirited response.
But this is a garden-related blog, so where is the gardening link? Well, children can cause a headache even with the best of intentions. See Daddy, my poppy hasn't grown yet for a great example of a father trying to repair the damage wrought by his son's enthusiasm.
