Hello, its Peter here and welcome to Wednesdays Levy Letter. I hope youre well and your day is going ok.
Thank you for all your emails about the sad death of Ronnie Barker yesterday. Ive had quite a few. Ill just read one, just a token. This one comes from Dave. I was so sorry to hear about the death of Ronnie Barker today. What a comedian he was and he will never be equalled. And that sort of says it all, doesnt it. Tonight at 6.30pm If youve been missing Snow Whites Little Helper, then he will be back tonight at half past six and Ill be there of course as usual with the days news. BBC1, 6.30pm as normal! Birthdays As you know, we do birthdays now in the Levy Letter. Two today. Katherine I wonder if I could have a mention in the Levy Letter. Ill be 28 years old on Wednesday and hoping to celebrate with a trip to the Bay Tree Owl Centre near Spalding. Katherine thank you very much for that and Happy Birthday! And this one comes from Jo and Rob McCann Please could you include this in Wednesdays Levy Letter to wish Jodie McCann a happy 8th birthday. She gets your email every day. She must be the youngest Levy Letter reader at 8 I would think, but we only get to see you when we visit her Granddads caravan in Bridlington. But she really likes you and Paul. She waits every day for her Levy Letter. So there you are, 8 years old, and not only reading the Levy Letter, but using email as well. Ill have to be careful what I say. Jodie a very Happy Birthday and lots of love from Mum and Dad and from me as well. Have a very good day. Not Only Teachers I mentioned on Monday that I didnt think that teachers would be reading this sort of thing. Well I got a surprise. Yesterday as you know, I got several emails from people who are teachers. This one from Linda. I wont give her second name in case she doesnt want it given out. Not only teachers have signed up for the Levy Letter, but sad old school librarians as well! Youre not sad Linda. Were glad that you are there. Also just a quick mention as well to Ann Heenan. On the subject of house prices mentioned in the Levy Letter today. I moved here three years ago to move in with my boyfriend, who is now my husband. I used to live in Aylesbury, in Buckinghamshire. The house prices there are double to what they are here. We just recently moved to Waltham and have a four bedroom bungalow. Ann hello to you. Happiness If being grumpy is your normal state of mind, then you may be tempted to scoff at the claim that experts in a new field of psychology say we can overcome natural negativity by teaching ourselves to be happy. The following key rules using mind games, say scientists, mean that everyone can lead a fulfilling life. Smiles, apparently release feel-good chemicals, which attract other people. Also choose a happy profession. Hairdressers are the most content, then the clergy, then chefs, beauticians, plumbers and mechanics: theyre the happy professions. Volunteers Add meaning to your life by singing in a choir or doing some charity work and invest in friends. Keep in regular contact with your friends. And finally, walk a mile a day! Exercise produces feelings of euphoria. Those are your lessons in happiness today. If youre a hairdresser, who has quite a few friends, who sings in a choir and walks a lot, then do get in touch. I would love to hear from you, as you are one of the h! appiest people. Competition Today, we have an exclusive Levy Letter competition, which is only available here. Its the chance to win two pairs of tickets to go to the opening night of the big hit, the Jungle Book, which is about to open at the Hull New Theatre.
