    Hi Richard,

    I am pleased to see your comments about the NHS and hand washing in particular. My Mum is 82 and broke her hip a year or so ago, and then got c-difficile in the Queens Medical Centre. They had alcohol hand rubs everywhere, which gets rid of MRSA, but this does not get rid of c-difficile which is a spore not and infection as such, so only hand washing and bleach got rid of it when we got her home. Please encourage NHS staff to wash hands rather than just use the hand rubs - they are incredibly well meaning and so I am sure want to do the best for patients.

    Good luck in your role

    Dear Bobby,

    Adam is writing about the Innocent entrepreneur. Then Ben is asking “Who is innocent ?”

    That is of course Richard Branson, he is Innocent and will always be Innocent.

    You must remember that Richard is an Innocent Dirty Little Naughty Boy and he will always be that.

    Beside he is probably out in his little Boat rowing, so you will never caught the Innocent Dirty Boy. You can always race him in rowing. Richard has very strong arms, so he will win.

    I have just watched BBC news and a woman was interviewed in Hardtalk about Eating Interrupt. That is always a problem when you get interrupted in eating. Especially when you are missing the Desert. The best part Richard.

    Then BBC news talked about PM Putin in Moscow. He said that
    Viktor in Ukraina shall not get more cheap gas from Russia.

    Have a nice Christmas. When are they packing up the present in England Richard ?

    Dear Sir Richard,

    You are my mentor and has been from the time you were a known public figure. Every time I see you, I see the person that I will be one day, very soon. My prayer is to, one day, meet you in person. Whenever you are in Nassau, Bahamas and have some time to spare, I would appreciate it very much if we could meet for lunch. I will be signing up for the competition to try to win a copy of your new book, Business Stripped Bare. Thanks! Have a Merry Christmas and a blessed, prosperous and safe New Year. May God continue to bless you and your family.

    Your Hopeful, Prospective International Student

    Mr.Branson , your book of “business stripped bear” brings a lot of inspiring thoughts to my own business, it is a gift from God.
    I have wrote 2 consecutive emails to VirginVie regarding the interest in being Vie’s partner in Asia and would like to work further with your group if possible. The beauty industry has long been my top priority forming my own business and as a female in Asia society, I look forward to establishing an enterprise leveraging the weaknesses of man-dominate society and provide more chances for female citizens. I hope we can talk more about my idea in promote virginVie in Asia.

    Happy New Year!!

    Richard,
    I recently read the interview you did in Playboy magazine. I was delighted to hear of your Vigin Money idea and have since looked into joining the Virgin Team.
    I’ve always known you to be a successful individual but until recently I had no idea who you really were. I’ve picked up a copy of your book and I’m sure in reading it I will discover many more interesting things about you.
    But the bottom line and reason for this post is that I WANT TO WORK FOR VIRGIN. My email is provided along with this comment. Please contact me should you have a position open for a talented problem solver like myself.

    Talk to you soon,

    Randall Gossman

    Mr Branson, I wish you a prosperous and happy new year. I pray that you speak for those that have no influence more this year and I pray you are safe, well and happy.

    Thanks

    Nothing to do with the tour but I just want to thank you, though belated for bringing some sanity into the national airline in Nigeria. In view of the bootle necks we face, I thank you for the trust you have in reviving the national airline, thus creating jobs and giving some sense of pride. I am sure it is working for you and hope that it does continue to work.

    Somehow, you must be some special person despite your attempts at death death dealing ventures. Please know one fact, ‘life is precious’.

    Please accept my gratitude to highest degree and thanks again.
