Your Letters

I doubt I'm alone when I say that Tuesday got just that little bit brighter with this story...

So in fact this teacher earned well below the recommended salary, the additional money coming from a project he took on and arrears from the previous year, all quite legitimate and fair. Is it just me or someone stirring the pot with this story?

Re this story, of course why would anyone use the word "armed" when you can just make up the word "weaponised".
David, Hong Kong

Bernard Owen, of the Betws-y-Coed tourist association, says using tarmac on one of the Snowdon paths is a "slippery slope". Isn't that how mountains work?

It is very patronising all this stuff about old people not using computers (Monday letters). Many of us have been using computers since stuff came out on punched tape. We had an emergency dash to my mother when she could not get online after a downloaded update and we helped her sort it out. Although being pensioners, it is not too easy for us to drive such a distance. Perhaps PD James, unlike my mum of similar age, did not do her own office work and therefore got out of touch with things - others have just kept on updating our home office equipment over the years.
Heather, Lincoln, UK
