"Letty, you haven’t updated in ages? Is Love Letty over? Where are you? Are you ever coming back? Did you die? Please tell us what is going on. Letty we love you, come back."  – A Worried Reader. 

Hi Letty, I have a pretty serious problem Letty, not gonna lie, I love the summer, my birthday is slap bang in the middle of it, the weather is warm(ish and if we're lucky), the colours in the fields are vivid and bright, and flowers are dressed in their sunday best as my great-nana used to say. My problem is, the summer does not love me back. I'm a redhead and burn at the slightest notion of bright skies, I also have hayfever which turns me into a red-eyed, nose streaming, gargantuous sneezing fit monster. This means that I often can't enjoy the Summer as much as I wish to. All I want to do is go walking through fields and woods having picnics and making daisy chains but even with the strongest medication from the doctors i still turn into a version of that monster. I've had this problem for 18 years now, I think it's time for it to go away now. Do you think this problem will ever end? Marianne xx

“Hi Letty, you always manage to solve a wealth of my problems so I hope you can help me with this…I feel that time is going by far too quickly for my liking and I find myself running out of time for the things I need to do. Can you please help me you wise ol’ owl? Lots of love xxx” - Rix

"Having recently adopted the tag of bona fide 'grown up' I am now beginning to find it difficult to strike a balance between being my 'serious' work self and my more laid back out of work self. I enjoy being both but find it takes me a long time to switch between the two. Any suggestions on how I can deal with this? " - J 

"Letty, what should I do if I already have regrets? I know that you are supposed to live without regrets but it's a little late for that. I want to go back and do it all again but I know that those people and opportunities aren't going to come into my life any more times. I only have power over the present, but how can I be ok with that when the present is the mediocre product of past-me's cowardice and poor judgement? Your brain waves would be much appreciated. Thank You" -Me x

"Dear Letty, the whole of nature is against me (actually it's mainly the animal kingdom) what should I do?" - A worried reader xx

"Dear Letty, Sometimes my words come out unclear and silly.... I was wondering if you could help me in describing to those around me, what it feels like to know love? Yours sincerely, " - Head over heels x

"Dear Letty, I left a candle burning all night (by mistake) my house didn't even slightly catch fire does this mean that all health and safety information is nonsense? " - A reckless friend 

Dear Letty, are you now just answering ukulele related questions or can we still ask you anything ? If so I feel I need a new direction in my life, please could you make me a map. I will leave the choice of place etc to you Pedro xx

"I have done a lot of travel with work over the past few years and seen many amazing sights such as the diversity and beauty of Costa Rica, to the amazing countryside in Brazil, and recently to the crazy cities of Shanghai, Taipei and Hong Kong where East has met West in a big way... but in all of these far off places and those closer to home that I have gone to like Spain, Italy, France and Turkey they all appear to have (at least) 2 things in common despite being all over our planet. 

Firstly they all have something to offer that is unique, beautiful or different and offer us something to learn. But secondly and more importantly there is always such a big divide (in some countries more than others) between the super rich and the super poor.

Do you think this is just the way we have come to accept? And it will always exist like it does today ? Or it will get better? Or it will get worse?

I don’t believe in a utopian world, but I always find it is so unfair – what would you do if you had the power to change it?

Good luck with the project!  It’s a great concept and you will learn a lot about people no doubt!

Take care. " - Matthew
