Monky business

It’s good to see the spirit of tolerance, free-thinking and openness with which the Hebrides are associated throughout Scotland in action again (“Monk’s mission to build monastery ‘will threaten our life on Hebrides’”, 22 May).

Quite right. No monasteries here! They’ll be wanting compulsory orgies on a Sunday next!

After all, who would want a bunch of Romanian monks moving in next door to them?
