The first banknote launched under Johnson’s government features Turner’s symbolic Fighting Temeraire (Money, 20 February; Steve Bell cartoon, 21 February). Did nobody at the Bank of England notice its full title: “The Fighting Temeraire, tugged to her last berth to be broken up”?

So, five pictures of Dominic Cummings and one of Thatcher in the main section of Saturday’s paper. For goodness sake, this is not a start to the weekend that I want. Get a grip.

Could you print more photos of Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, Boris Johnson, Michael Gove, Dominic Cummings and Priti Patel, please? Our cat likes to express her opinion of these charlatans by having their pictures underneath her litter tray.

We’ve had enough of marmalade conversations by now (Letters, 22 February). Please remember oranges are not the only fruit – and please don’t start on grapefruit marmalade.

A mere 47, I’ve been making Seville and Demerara marmalade for 10 years. But I long for the crystal-clear brightness of my late Auntie Wink’s grapefruit marmalade. I recall it had tiny gems of glacé cherry in it – or perhaps my rose-coloured spectacles are gilding the past. The recipe was lost with her in 1991 – can the Octogenarian Marmalade Club help?
