• I’m finding Nicola Sturgeon’s assertion that she didn’t know how many people were in her party (‘Fractious’ leadership battle is good for the SNP, 20 March) just as incredible as Boris Johnson’s claim that he didn’t know he was at one.

• I have been somewhat smugly enjoying the recent correspondence regarding failing hearing (Letters, 19 March), believing mine to be good. Until Monday morning, when a friend dropped in at 10am, announcing that she would like a G&T. Fine by me, but what she actually wanted was a ginger tea.

• Re the use of cargo bikes (Letters, 20 March), if you want to cycle around with more stuff, why not just get a trailer to screw on to the axle of the back wheel of your conventional bike? It will only cost about £100 and you can take it off when you don’t need it.
