Dear Esteemed Editors of the Canungra Times, I pen this missive with a most profound sense of regret and disquietude, compelled as I am to express my discontent regarding a rather unfortunate article published in the most distinguished The Canungra Times. (Issue 219, page 3, for your reference.)
This particular piece, which elicits a somewhat whimsical homage to the notion of ‘Turning Canungra Pink,’ has, alas, overlooked a vital contribution that has left me in considerable distress.
While I wholeheartedly applaud the splendid initiatives therein described, I find myself troubled—nay, offended—by the curious oversight regarding the noble equine efforts, concerning the Darlington Range Walk. In your enthusiastic prose, you mention both our two-legged and four-legged companions, yet entirely neglect the valiant steed who also partook in this delightful adventure!
As a proud member of the equine fraternity, I must convey that my exclusion has resulted in a rather tiresome onslaught of jest from two rather unruly canines, who, I might add, dwell within my own pastoral domain. (If it pleases you to know, one of these canines was, for the most part, transported in a rucksack rather than participating fully, a fact I find exceedingly amusing.)
It is only fitting that my valiant efforts be recognized with the dignity they deserve.
I have endured the undignified indignity of being adorned with pink and gold glitter spray, and a particularly fluffy pink owl precariously perched atop my ears—a sight most unbecoming for any self-respecting steed.
Might I propose that such ongoing tribulations be alleviated with recompense, perhaps in the form of a sizable bag of those delightful red frogs?
I trust that my concerns shall be met with the seriousness they warrant, and I look forward to your thoughtful consideration.
Yours most sincerely, Viscount Leopold Roland Neighdini Leppier
