Vladimir Putin will never forgive Volodymyr Zelenskiy for making him look old (Admire Volodymyr Zelenskiy all you like. But please don’t treat him as a heart-throb, 8 March). Putin aped the tough-guy look with his photo ops (bare-chested horse riding etc), whereas Zelenskiy has looked the part without even trying. Furthermore, Zelenskiy has displayed passion, an overused word lately, but apt here, whereas Putin can only achieve a cold dispassion, fed by vanity.

After the delights of Wordsearch puzzles that assume all authors, professionals and politicians are male, in your print edition on Monday we had diets as the theme. In vain did I look for words like nutrition, vitamins, diabetic and vegetarian. Every answer, with the possible exception of fibre, was to do with (female) reducing diets. Time for a few female compilers, I think.

Your photo (Phasing out Russian oil: how UK consumers can help the war effort, 11 March) shows a thermostat being turned down from 24 degrees. Who, I scream, even before this last fortnight, has their heating so high?

What to do about Chelsea FC (Report, 10 March)? There is no problem. Give it to the fans, where it should have been all the time.
