Good Day Sir,
Mr. Humphries I am applying for the job that you are offering. I have limited skills, but a very strong work ethic, never late to a job and always in a good mood. Sadly I can only afford to pay you the small sum of 8 pounds an hour for the job. But tell me when to start and I will be there with bells. Look forward to hearing from you soon!!!
In Christ,
Vance,

All the Best,
Stephen

Sounds like you might need a Gurkha Clerk. Perhaps you might post this with the Brigade of Gurkhas. Try gurkhasbde-regtsec@mod.uk
