Sir, – I could write long letters demolishing most of the claims made by Mr Fisken on wind farms and Mr Hunton on grouse (D&S letters Dec 5) but I think you and your readers have had enough on these subjects.

I suggest that these two gentlemen should feel satisfied that they have been able to air their views and now sit down with a good book or go and dig potatoes.
