Your letters
Lizzie (Friday's letters) I may be showing my age now, but I immediately thought more along the lines of ET.

I'm not impressed by the addition of #9. Whilst it may not be illegal, the highlight of it's legality could induce some of lesser intelligence to follow in the footsteps of that woman. Whilst I may be over-reacting to this, I am voicing my two pence due to my adoration of our feline co-habitants.

Every Florence that I've ever known has - once she reached majority - chosen something more flattering to be called by. It's no wonder that the Sun could only find eight for its list - and, even then, had to resort to including Flo.

Having considered Google Translate a vital tool in my French GCSE, and managing to get a B grade out of it, I think we can safely assume that a French GCSE doesn't enable you to speak the language.

Recently I have learned that when one of the pets died on Blue Peter they replaced it with another animal of the same name. And they are still doing on Top Gear, apparently when one Stig dies they replace him with another, without telling us. This I have come to accept but I think it is taking things a bit too far if the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ expects us to believe that this is the same Anne Robinson on each episode of the Weakest Link.
