Twitter might be more addictive than cigarettes.
But the Monitor letters page? That is as addictive as a really nice cup of tea... with biscuits.

I don't know if two phone boxes can give birth to a letter box (John Airey, Friday's letters), but looking at this view, I'm reminded of John Cleese, Ronnie Barker and Ronnie Corbett

Colin Main (Friday's letters) is not quite correct. It would be possible to truthfully assert that an Olympics was the cleanest Olympics "ever" (as opposed to his suggestion of "so far") if it could be shown that the Olympics was 100% clean. Then, the best any future Olympics could aspire to would be "joint cleanest Olympics ever" or something. I'll get my anorak.

Re 10 things, number 5, surely as trees have rings (rather than the spirals on vinyl records), the music would be rather monotonous as it would be stuck in the same 'groove' ?
