Straight to the POINT

AFTER the inquiry is over, the burnt-out remains of Grenfell Tower should be replaced with a garden of remembrance. L. DAY, Trowbridge, Wilts.

WORST May ever (Mail)! This headline could easily relate to the Prime Minister rather than sales on the High Street. DAVE JOHNS, Brighton. E. Sussex.

WHY all the hype about jumpsuits (Inspire)? I wore a denim one with zips in the Seventies and discovered its downside in a country pub that only had outside facilities. Mrs B. HOWE, Swindon, Wilts. GOOD old Boris! He says precisely what the majority of this country thinks. GEORGE KELLY, Burgh-le-Marsh, Lincs.

TV SUBTITLES can be hilarious. During the cricket, I was alarmed to read that the vampires were walking on to the pitch! WILLIAM BROWN, Wendover, Bucks.

BEST way to get rid of creepy-crawlies (Mail)? We put out a dish of milk for the birds, which attracted slugs. No poison needed and the birds love them. JOSEPHINE SIMPSON, Stafford.

ON MOTHER’S Day, there were no cards for single-parent fathers. So why are there cards for single mums on Father’s Day (Mail)? Mrs J. DEERING, address supplied.
