Shut down sooner Well worth the walk
No truth and no justice for Lockerbie £25 STAR LETTER
I have no idea what the truth is about Lockerbie and that’s a terrible indictment of UK and US governments and prosecutors. That such a crime is still shrouded in mystery 32 years later is awful for the families who lost loved ones but undermines everyone’s faith in justice. Personally, I don’t believe the conspiracies. I think Megrahi was involved but he was not alone and if the truth about an atrocity like that can still be dribbling out more than three decades later, I can see why so many believe there has been a cover-up. Who really believes we’ll ever know the truth of what happened?

Best gift ever
My granddaughter lives a four-hour drive away so we haven’t been able to see one another much this year, apart from Facetiming and Zoom calls.
She is very talented at drawing and decided this year to draw her own Christmas cards.
When we received ours we were so overwhelmed at the effort she had put in to every little detail.
If one good thing has come out of this pandemic, it’s the lovely way we have went back to old-school writing and drawing cards.
I will cherish her card for many years to come as I know it took her weeks to do and that means more to me than a card that’s bought, signed and posted.

Polluters should pay
Why are governments punishing the hospitality sector while allowing takeaways to trade? These premises contribute substantially to littering and obesity.
These businesses have profited massively during the pandemic and the streets are strewn with their rubbish. Whatever happened to the principle that the polluter pays? Kathryn Grant, by email
Why didn’t Scotland shut down when London did? One minute Nicola Sturgeon was saying the one lesson she’s learned is to act sooner, and the next she’s saying we can wait six days before locking down. Does anyone not believe that Scotland will see the same rates as England eventually? E Mcphail, by email
I have enjoyed reading The Sunday Post since childhood and have had the paper delivered all my adult life. During my recent visit to the newsagent to settle my bill I was surprised at the price and was told the extra charge was £2 per week for delivery as The Post is the only newspaper I have delivered.
As a canny 81-year-old I decided to cancel this arrangement and now go out on Sunday morning for a walk to buy my favourite read. Doreen Philip, Peterculter
The Bill has gone
Good luck to Bill Bailey but there’s no way he should have won Strictly. Maisie Smith was so good she could have been the professional! It was a daft result.
