Dear Sir/Madam,
REAL COST OF OLYMPICS
What concerns me about the Olympics is not financial cost, road congestion, much over-rated threats to civil liberties or the virtual monopolising of the airwaves with a monoculture of sportive "news". Rather, it is the knowledge that if an event giving rise to National Mourning occurred (like the death of Diana or the Queen Mother), the games could not be abandoned as a mark of respect due to contractual obligations.
Were the next few weeks to see the sad loss of any of our Royal Family or Lady Thatcher, the British People could never continue with the games in a spirit of enforced jollity. Yet, that is precisely what the promoters and sponsors of this tawdry sporting circus would attempt to ensure.

Dear Sir/Madam,
NAKED TRUTH
The cost to the public purse of gaoling Naked Rambler Stephen Gough has become intolerable.
Were he only to agree to have his external sexual organs surgically removed, his nudity could cause offence to nobody.
On the other hand, anybody going out unclothed in the current weather is clearly deranged and, on this basis, the use of Mental Health legislation may be justified.

Dear Sir/Madam,
CALL WITH CONSEQUENCES
Regrettably, the involvement of the Roman Catholic Church has totally wrecked any winnable campaign against same-sex marriage. The hypocrisy of their hierarchy's lengthy inaction against the predations of paedophile priests means that any Catholic pronouncement on sexual ethics is now fatally tainted, whatever its content.
Instead of calling for a referendum, Cardinal O'Brien must reluctantly accept (as have I) that the forces of decency in Scotland have lost and that the majority of Scots now support same-sex marriage.
When the homosexualist hordes retaliate by calling for a referendum on segregated schooling for his adherents, he may soon come to regret his inept meddling.

Dear Sir/Madam,
PLUVIAL MEASURES
It seems that we are currently in receipt of record amounts of rain.
Whilst it has certainly been somewhat moist of recent weeks, I have been unable to compare precipitation levels with previous years due to the media's fetish for using only metric units.
Perhaps you would care to more fully inform your readers by converting to inches in future reports?
It is claimed that many younger people may not be able to understand these - but they can easily learn.
