I would appreciate it if you could make your readers aware that my e-petition (which asks for Richard III to be reinterred at York Minster) is still available to sign and has now passed the 27,000 signatories mark.

It can be found at epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/38772.

I would also like to take the opportunity to apologise to the residents of Sheriff Hutton, whose place name has managed to acquire an extra “r”…for “Royal”, “Regal”, or “Richard”, perhaps?

Mark Cousins, Bellhouse Way, York.
