“Dear Chef Ketchup…”

Did a thing on the show asking you to write break-up letters. Not with a boyfriend or girlfriend, but with a thing. A tv show, item of food, place, whatever. Some were too good to be used once on the radio and then disappear…

Dear 24/Jack Bauer, we had some great times together but alas u’ve become over exposed and commercialised so I must leave u, our clock has ticked its last tick, goodbye New Ross Tom:-(      

Dear air guitar. We,re fineshed. I can c right through u ! Gluck damo 

Dear Belly, you have been with me through thick and thin, shared with me the birth of five children. But its over now, you  have to go. Its not you, I want to go and find myself. Good luck. Anita Schwarz from Glengarriff  

Dear body, i’m sorry to do this by text, but I just look ridiculous talking to myself. I’m afraid we can’t go on like this. We used to have a great relationship but lately you’ve been letting things slip. We used drink til 5am together, but now… you quit on me too early. Last night I thought we could have a few brews just to wind down the weekend, but once again, this morning you were in tatters and brought me down with you! I’m sorry but I’m applying for a full body transplant. -kevin  

Dear cheap toilet paper i am breakin up wit you because i know you are cutting the arse off me behind my back and i cant sit through this crap any longer . Off to a softer touch x   

Dear chef ketchup. It wasn’t broken-why did u think u needed to fix yer recipee? I haven’t enjoyed chips with you since th big change. An avid chef ketchup fan for years for all my life-i’ve now strayed to heinz. And i’m not ashamed to say -i’m happy with heinz. Goodbye chef ketchup, thanks for th memories. From michelle in Sligo.

Dear cosy socks i feel that after two years of wearing you has come to an end. I will miss your matted toes and heel i will also miss turning you inside out every so often trying to recreate the feeling i  got when we first met. It wasn the same after the first eight months. Im sorry cosy socks. Its whats best for both of us.

Dear DIT  Aungier street, i cant stand u anymore. All those orange d4s in their ugg boots and hair piled on top of their overly made up heads has become too much for me. The lack of atmosphere is depressing. Goodbye!

Dear Insanity, i’m afraid it’s the end of a long road which has had its ups & downs but alas the meds are finally working… Our nights laughing or arguing, our wacky outfits & inappropriate outbursts can be no more. Sanity has crept up & swept me off my feet. And what’s more, I can have friends and Sanity too. No Longer Yours,  Val

Dear work pants, i have been suspicious for awhile now. You have been going missing for days and nights and coming back with fresh smells. Any holes or tears we made together were covered over.
