Beat R
What a fascinating letter.
There are the many Anglo R's such as the swinging Irish R, the speech impediment swallowed American R, the classy hinted tongue rolled Noel Coward R, the silent aloof one of academics, and of course - my personal favourite Rick Mayall: "Thatcher's bloody Brrrrritain!" Produced using his lips (genius...)
But it doesn't stop there...
The rest of us foreigners are rolling pretty magnificently too...
What about the French with the clear Edith Piaf ironic gargle, or the squashed stroppy nasal one, or the seductive nostalgic Maurice Chevalier long suspended tongue roll one.
Italy with the sliding 'Arrivederci Roma'

The Germans incisive as ever with their commanding dry one.
Morocco has given the world a beautiful R rated deep throated one, Brazil turned it into an 'H', China got an 'L' plate on it, Israel and Russia both invaded its neighbours with one, the list goes on...
Regal or what..?

R does come with important health warning though.
While perfectly fine to accompany the early vigorous stages of sensual socialisation, climaxing is best left to a more vowel kind of letter of your choosing0 -

As with many of Lenny's posts there is no straight or simple answer, so I'm going to go with my three favourite letters:-
W, T and F4 -
Lenny, I love you posts, never change, haters gonna hate.
I've always been an "S" man myself. Specifically, the old school block letter style "S's"

Chuks likes A and E (sorry Chuks, I know it’s not your fault)1

T is probably the most popular for a lot of us….milk and sugar ?0

The sadly neglekted and kriminally underused letter K.
I propose that K replace C in all words where a hard C is used, eg Kunt and Konstantinople.
Leave C to Cecil and Chimpanzee etc.
PS God save the Kinks

Just seen this and am slightly disappointed there are more than 26 posts. Are people making up letters?3
