Re the adultery charge (). I would not be happy to have my young child run around a playground and stumble over two adults having nookie on a picnic table. Also, the thought of his or her naked butt on a place where I might have my ham and cheese sandwich totally grosses me out. I am not going to pretend to like this in a way of "oh, look how open minded I am". There is a time and a place for everything and motels come cheap.

So two of our national have had a spat at each other, highlighting the differences in their generational culture. Patrick Stewart echoed all who hold to traditional standards, while James Corden maintained his archetypal attitude. Neither seems to have demonstrated the glamour that the evening required.

Tom, (Tuesday letters): while Mike Berners-Lee perhaps didn't call out overpopulation as an environmental problem as directly as does, say, Doug Stanhope ("a Prius with a baby seat is basically a Hummer"), he more than hinted at it with his splendidly grim reminder that, by the time you're worrying about the carbon footprint of your cremation, "you have already done the most carbon-friendly thing possible".

Population reduction is a very common theme for global CO2 reduction. It was even discussed in this week's Reith Lecture. It is well worth listening.

George (Tuesday letters), my parents once sent me a tea-towel as a souvenir of a Seal Sanctuary they had visited. Proudly emblazoned across the towel was a seal who had been born with a cleft palate, and badly injured by a boats propellors, that the Sanctuary staff had named Lucky. My first use of the towel was to dry my tears of laughter.
