I do hope countries agree to use the Jules Verne crater on the far side of the moon as a spacecraft graveyard to crash defunct equipment as they use Point Nemo in the South Pacific Ocean as a spacecraft cemetery (Patches of the moon to become spacecraft graveyards, say researchers, 22 December). In the 1980s, at the time of the nuclear incident in Ukraine, I was driving to the Suffolk coast, passing through Leiston, the nearest town to the Sizewell power station, upon whose town sign some wag had scrawled \u201cTwinned with Chernobyl\u201d (Letters, 26 December). We laughed when John Prescott said that the green belt was \u201ca Labour achievement, and we mean\u00a0to build on it\u201d. We are not laughing now (Sport stars \u2018deeply concerned\u2019 playing fields will be lost under planning reforms, 22 December). All over the country, volunteer fundraisers have been collecting to the music of Chris Rea (Obituary, 22 December). Thanks, Chris \u2013 enjoy the drive home. I want to know why some choose a hill on which to die while others make their last stand\u00a0in a ditch (The hill I will die on: Being late can be the height of good manners and decorum, actually, 24 December). Is it just geography? \u201cTrump class\u201d? Now there\u2019s an oxymoron (Trump announces plans for new navy warships to be known as \u2018Trump-class\u2019, 22 December). Thank you for your moving obituary of Muriel Manning in the print edition this week (Other\u00a0lives, 22 December). This sort of article is why I read the Guardian.
