> 'If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with,' Crosby,

> The saying goes, 'See a penny, pick it up, and all day long you'll have

> Milos el Standish, Barcelona

> I HAVE recently started to m£sturbate whilst fantasising about Jeanette

> COULD the Home Secretary explain to me how biometric checks on iris

> Les Barnsley, Barnsley

> 'ONE pound a week will supply water for an entire village in Tanzania',

> Tracey Cusick, Cumbria
>
> HOW come rap artist Dr. Dre can use the 'N' word on his multi-million
> selling albums and win a MOBO award, yet when I used it at my son's

> So HMV consider Andy Williams and Dean Martin to be "easy listening" do

> I couldn't sleep the other night so my wife suggested that I try counting

> What a farce.
> A. Morris, Frampton

> According to Nietzsche, 'That which does not kill me makes me stronger',

> A Thorne, Sandbach

> IT'S uncanny how some of these old sayings are true. 'Absence makes the

> Christopher Hampshire, Bristol

> I AM becoming sick and tired with the media's politically correct

> T Cutt, Surrey

> I see on the news that Lord Hutton says he is "satisfied that David Kelly

> Dave Owen, Edinburgh

> This Value Added Tax is a rip-off. I was expecting a great deal on a car

> Jon Cooke, Leicester

> The recent suicide of Harold Shipman has thrown up some interesting

> After suffering a head-on car crash in Northumbria recently, who should I

> G Bryant, Sheffield

> I was shocked to hear Home Secretary David Blunkett say that Britain's

> The government says that there are nearly 50,000 people with HIV in
