The had me thinking of lasting influence of a bad artist's work on someone's life during such vital moments. How do fledgling tattoo artists train? Surely they would not be completely error-free so early in their career, so who out there would happily allow an inexperienced inker permanently mark them? A slightly awkward catch-22 situation methinks.

More Tory infighting - now Cameron has accused his party of . A bit harsh there, Dave!

Every time I read he gives a different excuse. That it wasn't a real hurricane - England will never have wind speeds high enough to get a real hurricane. That he wasn't the first to say it wasn't coming. Now he says he was talking about a completely different country. It's time he owned up to the gaff and laughed about it.

Fascinating to read in the Alexandra Burke interview that she is "her own woman", because she made the decision to have a fringe all by herself. Ms Pankhurst would be so proud.

Even better than the offers on at Andy Taylor's local supermarket Tuesday letters) are the ones I have at mine. One pack of frozen fish for £2, or two packs for £5... Hmmmm.

As students, we used to (probably illegally) sell cans of beer to other students on their way out of nightclubs. It was £1.50 a can, or three for a fiver. You'd be amazed how many people took us up on our offer.

Recently, my local supermarket had a "special offer" selling four-packs of canned tuna for the price of five identical single cans. That was topped by an offer to buy a four-pack of tinned tomatoes for the regular price of three single tins.

I don't care how cheap the packet of sausages is, if a third of them are off, the rest can't be far behind.

Nadja (Tuesday letters), what you are missing is the Australian weather. If you're out in the sun all day the beer doesn't have as much impact as it would in a bar in chilly Boston.
