With the western allies having been entangled in two destructive and illegal wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, Benny Morris ( Obama's nuclear spring , 24 November) is eager and willing to start a third one. The history professor who now believes that the Nakba in 1948 did not go far enough, with too few Palestinians being ejected out of their land, is now of the opinion that Obama must give Israel the...

The Train Kept A Rolling: The trip to see Motorhead in Plymouth last Wednesday was a delight. Bearing in mind the new advert on TV asking us to drive 5 miles a week less to cut down on the CO2 emissions, we met them half way with Mrs. B dropping me off 2.5 miles closer to home at our doorstep station of Hamworthy Junction for the 12.42, rather than from the main station in Poole. At Dorchester South...

A Writers' Right To Write: 'Murder She Wrote' vs 'Basic Instinct.' Now, there's a thought; that busy-body old biddy Jessica (JB) Fletcher vs the also busy-body, but in a vastly different way of Catherine Tramell: Angela Lansbury vs Sharon Stone.

Saturday night and we are back at home after a couple of days 'on the road' down to Dorset and Weston-super-Mare. For the first time for a few days Logan has got a bit of his appetite back although he is still proving hard work at mealtimes.
