SIR – In reply to Mr Margrett (November 12), my furniture, clothes, records, books, TV set, LP player and radio are all secondhand.
The only ‘new’ things I buy are food, £32 a week, papers and magazines, £11 a week, but because I get more money than many pensioners, I help out financially two friends.
GEORGE COWLEY, Worcester.
