Dear Sir,
I am surprised that you chose to reprint last Saturday’s front page Good Friday kite-flying photo with the same caption to illustrate Mrs Bolton’s letter on how proud she was that our Easter traditions are alive and well, citing the family activities at Astwood Park. Like all media, The Royal Gazette plays a major role too — by using the correct terms. In this case, the word is “pitch”. We pitch kites. Rockets are launched.
