Your “Mullets we have loved” (In pictures, 17 February) was highly flawed. Half of these “mullets” were actually shags (Ronnie Wood, Rod Stewart, Tina Turner, Joan Jett).

• Your front page stated: “All three wore black dresses after a call for the awards to focus on industry rather than clothes” (Taking a stand at the Baftas, 19 February). However, on page 11, there were three columns commenting on what the actors were wearing. I am confused.

• Milly Molly Mandy by Joyce Lankester Brisley and Little Grey Rabbit by Alison Uttley (Review, 17 February) were wonderful companions for a child in the 1950s. We owned few books, although my father sent me a Little Grey Rabbit book every week when he was working away. Today’s libraries have computers but they also have books, and it is vital that we cherish them. Use them or lose them.

• The moon’s disappearance from the weather page has made my poor sleep preparation more troublesome. Please replace it.

• National service for pensioners? (Letters, 19 February). If you mean working in the voluntary sector, it is already up and running.

• I am 69. Count me in to pay NI. Well worthwhile as an investment in the NHS and benefits system.
