Your Letters
To use wonderful term, the Git Wizard is back.
Tom Hartland, Loughborough, UK
Please, MM, could you arrange for all letters to have a link to the previous day's letters? That way I can catch up when I've been away. Usually you are very good, but this time I got stuck on Monday.. I did enjoy everything up until then, though.
Fran, Brill, UK
Monitor: Yesterday, all our troubles seemed so far away.
Re Basil Long's challenge to find Ade Adepitan's Desert Island Discs: It would have been much easier for the rest of us if MM had provided the appropriate link in the letter.
Kevin, Leeds
Don't get out much, do you Basil?
Andrew, Malvern, UK
Basil, you're describing the Wikipedia Challenge (other sources of information with dubious validity are available). Click Random Article on the homepage then use just links in the "featured article" to get to that page in as few steps as possible. Let me know if you fancy a head-to-head one day.

Many years ago I found, in a second-hand record shop, one of the 7,319 copies of 'I'm Backing Britain' by Bruce Forsyth and added it to my surprisingly extensive collection of Brucie vinyl. It had a plain paper sleeve - as did most single in those days. A few years later I found the record's (empty) picture sleeve in a junk shop in Oslo and was able to reunite them.
