At the beginning of each year, the do-gooders try to get us to give up some of our favourite food and drink by making January an abstain themed month. As an act of defiance against these killjoys we should have themed months in the Autumn to celebrate our favourites with the following: Meat fans can have STEAKTEMBER, Chocolate lovers can have CHOCTOBER and Gin drinkers can have SLOEVEMBER!

Congratulations to Caeden Thomson on climbing Ben Nevis Mountain aged just 7 years old, despite having cerebral palsy and doctors saying he would never be able to walk, sit or talk. What an inspiring and brave boy and the fact he did it to raise funds for the charity Scope makes it even more special. His parents said he is a “absolute legend” which is a fitting tribute! Nick, Hartlebury kidderminster

I’ve just completed your bank holiday fun quiz scoring 30 out of
30. I really hope these questions do not reflect the standard required to be an A-grade student? If it does then no wonder the country is in the mess it’s in, with no chance of improvement.

Happy childhood memories, Bazboy. Millions. Street games and no cars interrupting us, frozen outside privy and Dad breaking ice in pan with a stick, free batter bits for kids at chippy, tadpoling with a 6d net, rabbit stews, smell of a just lit open coal fire, xmas annuals, copper boilers and mangles, steam trains, radiograms and pocket money of 3d, which went a long way! Hard at times but happy days!
