Your Letters

15:30 UK time, Wednesday, 16 May 2007

To all you non-smokers who think you are going to get clean, fresh air when you go on a night out after the ban is introduced, you may want to know that some clubs in Scotland now have perfumed smoke machines to cover the smell of BO.
Anon, Glasgow

To Nic from Sheffield (Tuesday's letters): As a practising doctor who tries to be conscientious about infection control, I'd be intrigued to know how your being vegetarian protects you from MRSA?
N, Peterborough

Re: story - what about the fact that they are unhealthy with or without animal products. That's how I want to prevent getting cancer etc, by eating a healthy diet low in fat, lots of friut, veg and yes, occasionally red meat.
Alison, Banchory, Aberdeenshire

Perhaps those of us who are vegetarians should send a message of thanks to Masterfoods for putting animal products into bars etc. We now have a good reason not to eat the (tasty) products that have always been, and still are, not particularly healthy.
Samir, Bath

I hate to be pedantic, but would Darren McCormac (Tuesday's letters) like to list the conditions in which you cannot break down animal fats but CAN break down vegetable fats? Also, if you can't digest fats, you just excrete them. Sweeping statements may work for the Daily Mail, but not in the Magazine, please.
Sedge, Birmingham

I'll overlook Mark Ivey's blasphemy against Tintin (Tuesday's letters) and simply point out that a live-action Dungeons and Dragons film was made a few years ago. It's possibly the worst film ever made. I'd suggest he watch it himself, but even blasphemers don't deserve that.
Edward Green, London, UK

Being an avid watcher of ´óÏó´«Ã½ News I have recently begun to notice that all of the weather girls seem to be pregnant. Can you folks shed any light on this?
Owen, Belfast

Monitor note: It wasn’t us.

Re: Thieves steal 250,000 . It looks like the police should be on the lookout for a stash of hot chocolate... Will they be offering a bounty?
Stuart K, Guildford

Surely those who dumped the tonne of horse manure in front of restaurant should be brought to justice. I'm pretty sure that harassment laws, fly-tipping laws and highway laws have been broken. We should not be celebrating the total disregard that this group show to fellow humans in the name of 'animal rights'. If such a programme was on in France, you'd get a gallic shrug of the shoulders from everyone, PETA inclusive. Its only one horse for God's sake...
Luke, Aberystwyth

Don't you think that Janet Street-Porter and are somehow made for one another? For although Gordon is now saddled with a tonne of manure, they speak the same unbridled language. One is almost reminded of Frank Sinatra's "love and marriage, go together like a horse and Claridge..." OK, I'll get back to work.
Steve, London
