After reading Polly Toynbee’s excellent article (For something so hollow, the royal family is astonishingly expensive, 5 April), might I ask that when you cover the coronation it will be a pull-out supplement that I can throw straight in the recycling bin?

• Joel Snape claims that he once could “hoist a Vauxhall Astra hatchback off the ground 11 times in 90 seconds” (My personal bests are behind me – but I’ve found the secret to sustained exercise, 5 April). This is something I would dearly love to see. With a kerb weight of around 1,400kg, I suspect that the front (or rear) wheels alone were what was lifted – a much easier proposition.
