Seven years ago, I wrote to you about the Guardian referring to “masts as high as the Shard” and suggested comparing tall structures with the Blackpool Tower instead for the benefit of us up north (Letters, 2 March 2016). Last week, an article on the tallest wind turbine in England did just that (Report, 9 February). It’s taken a while, but I’m glad you have finally taken my complaint seriously.

• Diolch yn fawr am yr erthygl olygyddol ardderchog, yr oedd yn canu clod am yr iaith Gymraeg (The Guardian view on the Welsh language: words that matter, 12 February). Gan eich bod chi erbyn hyn yn mor frwd am y Gymraeg, ga i, o hyn ymlaen, ysgrifennu atoch yn iaith y nefoedd?

• I note that a group of rightwing protesters demonstrated against a drag queen storytelling event at Tate Britain (Report, 12 February). I assume they’d prefer to get back to good, wholesome, old-fashioned children’s entertainment with none of this gender-bending nonsense. Like pantomime maybe?

• Did Dame Judi Dench really say “if you’ve had your four score years and 10, you’re going to drop off the bow anyway” (Interview, 10 February)? Perhaps whoever transcribed the interview should take a bough.

• Ironic that John Roberts (Letters, 12 February) felt the need to mansplain Jim McLean’s letter (9 February) in response to a mansplaining article.
