Letter: Getting younger

Sir: Harry Yoxall (Letters, 13 March) should consider himself in the first flush of youth if, in his fifth decade, it is only his contemporaries who are having letters printed in the Independent. At one decade further on, we found ourselves two weeks ago to be the parents of a published writer of letters to the Independent.

Yours,
