Your Letters

15:54 UK time, Wednesday, 18 February 2009

Dear Monitor, why, when the question of is raised, do Northerners take such a London-centric view of the South? There are plenty of lovely places in the South East alone to complain about; take Canterbury, Winchester, Guildford, Eastbourne and Royal Tunbridge Wells for starters. There's plenty of room for cultural belittlement outside of London, you know.

Re: I hope the examiner didn't actually request the learner driver perfom a three-point turn as this story suggests. The actual requirement is to turn the car around using the forward and reverse gears. The number of "points" taken is irrelevant.

Re: I thought I was saving energy by having twins; was I wrong?

Mike (Tuesday letters) - I've got your coat.
Margaret, Christchurch, NZ

Oh dear, Louise of Surrey (Tuesday letters). Never heard of Mark Twain? Let y'self down there.
Phil, Manchester

To follow up on Basil Long's letter (Tuesday letters) shouldn't the Vodafone spokesman have advertised their phone as "the thinner, nicer Android-powered device on the market"?
Stephen Turner, Cambridge, England

I find it strange that it was felt necessary to lock up because "he was considering fleeing the UK". Given that the authorities were trying to deport him at the time, wouldn't that have just saved everyone a lot of trouble?
Adam, London

Looking at the strapline on - I wondered when we might see a similar gender-identifier on the top of the Monitor column.

Surely I am not the only one who thinks is six weeks early?
Dr Reece Walker, London
