Those aren't ghost mountains, they're tents.
Jimmy, Milton Keynes

Mystery solved! They were actually just a whole lot of giant pencils buried upright in the snow.

Dear Lesley (Wednesday Letters), Yes. PS Early transatlantic flights stopped at places like Newfoundland and the Azores.
Andrew, Oxford, UK

Lesley, the early services had to refuel at somewhere like Newfoundland. I suppose if Ryanair had been running it they could have marketed it as "Non-stop to New York (Newfoundland)" and then put on a bus service to take you into the city.
Ruaraidh, Wirral, UK

I thought there must be some well known middle ingredient in a toast sandwich. You know, like everyone here calls cheese in bread fried up a "grilled cheese" or people know what a reuben sandwich is... but no, the thing between bread is actually toast, toasted bread. I'm a grad student so I know about keeping it cheap, but that right there is Dickensian poorhouse cheap, and it has basically no nutrients, either. They couldn't have picked a vegetable soup or something?
Nadja, Virginia, USA

The toast sandwich was lovely. I made further savings by not toasting the middle slice (a needless waste of electricity, if you ask me).
Mike, Newcastle upon Tyne

Nomative Determinism time again: One of the pioneers of non-stop flights was Juan Trippe? fantastic! No? okay, i'll get my flight jacket...
Ted Rogers, Cheshire, UK
