Queues in pubs (Letters, 6 February)? Hallelujah! Now perhaps elderly women of 5ft 1in will be able to get a drink. I’m not sure which are worse, the big blokes who wave their £20 notes over your head or the ones who, having bought a drink, just stay leaning on the bar. Queueing? Bring it on. Mine’s a large house red, please.

Paul Dacre’s characterisation of a certain book as “written to appeal to a certain section of the Guardian readership” was presumably intended as a put-down, but I took it as a recommendation (Flashes of anger but Paul Dacre keeps his head before court cut-off, 11 February). Can we get more of the same from this unlikely source of advice?

I played Martin Rowson’s new game (I asked AI to name my wife. To the hopelessly incorrect people it cited, my deepest apologies, 9 February), asking AI the name of Anthony Thwaite’s wife and, more disturbingly, it came up with exactly the right answer.

Adrian Chiles rails against the proliferation of potholes as an example of broken Britain (Surely potholes were never this bad before?, 11 February). Last night I watched my local councillors debate which they could afford – spending on schools with large financial deficits or mending potholes. Sadly, placating motorists seems to have more public support than helping our young people.

Are potholes God’s way of telling motorists to slow down?
