 Dear Sir or Madam,

 I am writing in relation to an article which you published recently about the town centres of my country, to which I have some objections.

 I read the article yesterday, while I was on my way to work. One thing which I completely agree with you is that all our town centres are circular in appearance. Another point which is true is that the most of those have corridors.

 However, none of our town centres are very similar, as those are designed by the English, Portuguese and the Dutch, at different time periods. Unlike other town centres, ours have no housing colonies. One other difference is that our town centre has its main entrance towards the south, whereas others have their main entrances towards the east.

 It would be highly appreciated if you could visit my town once, so that you would get a better picture. I would offer you a guided tour and I think this would definitely help you to frame another interesting article.

 I look forward to hearing from you.

 Yours faithfully,

 Simon
