Home truths from Ruth are spot-on
Her epistle on the Xbox study leave (Spectrum, 22 May) was just fantastic, even down to the throwaway line on the absurdity of the concept of someone employing the lazy little sods.

It is reassuring to know that it is not just us who are going through this form of self imposed torture.
