Isobel Yeung documentary | No Mow May | Baked potatoes | Defining wealth | Blocked bogs
As a former provincial journalist, the worst discomforts I endured were irate councillors, bureaucrats and business bosses. World Press Freedom Day, which took place on 3 May, made me want to express my admiration for the courage and professionalism shown by Isobel Yeung in the making of The Other War on BBC Three. Her work to expose the horrors of trying to survive in the West Bank was beyond the call of duty.

• My husband supported me in my quest for more sustainability in the garden and agreed to refrain from mowing the lawn last May (No Mow May: councils urge Britons to put away lawnmowers, 3 May). When he got around to mowing the rather unruly growth some time later, the belt on the lawn mower broke and involved a costly repair. He no longer supports No Mow May.
