Proposals on prose

Just a quick Police Officers' Club note to record my appreciation of the literary talents of Assistant Manager of the Police Officers' Club Robbie McRobbie. In a short article on the club he managed to use an impressive array of synonyms, namely, marvellous, wonderful, incredible, totally, sumptuous, amazing, and superb.

Knowing he is entirely computer illiterate and indeed normally struggles with the spoken language let alone the written word, I have taken the liberty of my vast experience in the administrative field to suggest the following additions.

Extraordinary, fabulous, spectacular, fantastic, outstanding, remarkable, phenomenal, astounding, awesome, astonishing, startling and wondrous. I applaud his efforts so far and hope this is of some assistance. Well done indeed,





B.J. Smith
Superintendent, Administration
New Territories North Headquarters
