A group of us have been creating our very own “tapestry” for two years (see stamfordbridgetapestry.org.uk) and are about halfway through our 12-metre saga, which aims to fill the gap between the Fulford tapestry and the Bayeux. By the time the Bayeux arrives, we should have completed our work, and it would be wonderful to see all three displayed side by side. But I don’t think this could happen in Stamford Bridge (Letters, 23 January) as, due to funding issues, we are struggling to find a venue to display our meagre 12 metres.Shirley SmithBishop Wilton, East YorkshireA group of us have been creating our very own “tapestry” for two years (see stamfordbridgetapestry.org.uk) and are about halfway through our 12-metre saga, which aims to fill the gap between the Fulford tapestry and the Bayeux.

• Growing up in Yorkshire in the 1940s we always had it as pudding but never with jam and sugar (these were both rationed); it was always with treacle (golden syrup) trickled on.Tony CleaverYork• Growing up in Yorkshire in the 1940s we always had it as pudding but never with jam and sugar (these were both rationed); it was always with treacle (golden syrup) trickled on.Tony CleaverYork
• Forget last Friday’s red-top (Letters, 3 February). I cut out the funniest brief letters and glue them on to my envelopes when I write to my parents.
