Sorry ah, cannot help noticing an error in the letter format that I have to highlight:

The signing off part should be "Yours sincerely", not "Your" Evil or Very Mad

Don't understimate this hor. You dun want to be too generous giving away marks when it comes to exams! Very Happy

Do point out any errors I've made.

Thanks precious for pointing out Very Happy
