There are three stations missing from your feminist version of the tube map (Next stop, Sylvia Plath! Why it is time to redraw the London Underground map, 7 March): Mary Wollstonecraft, Stoke Newington; Anna Laetitia Barbauld, Hampstead; and Catherine Blake, Lambeth North.

• Rev Richard Bradshaw’s Nigerian parishioner might be right about church leaders not praying for peace in Nigeria (Letters, 4 March), but I can assure both of them that at Holy Trinity Knaresborough, at various times in the past 20 years, we have prayed for peace in Nigeria, Angola, Libya, Somalia, Ethiopia, Afghanistan, Syria, Myanmar, Iraq and Sri Lanka. I suspect that this also holds true for hundreds of parishes throughout the country.

• Helen White says: “In my house the only things in the fruit bowl are bananas” (How to stop wasting food and save money, 7 March). It sounds to me that she too has bought into the myth that you cannot keep bananas in the fridge. If green when bought, wait until they are the level of ripeness that you like, then refrigerate. I have been doing this for years – they last much longer and with no ill effects.

• Just to add to the advantages of using a round table for debate: it worked for King Arthur at Camelot (Letters, 6 March).

• Much has been said about how slow the UK is in freezing or seizing Russian oligarchs’ assets compared with the EU (Report, 3 March). To be fair, critics are not taking into account the extra steps that our government has to take, ie checking how much the oligarchs have donated to the Tory party before deciding who to target.
