CBT instead of Viagra? That won’t last for long

Cognitive behavioural therapy | Cutting down on mental maths | A break from gambling ads | Wound up in Winchester

Barney Ronay’s article (Amazon TV experiment proves that football with no filler doesn’t work, 9 December) reminded me why I’ve found Amazon TV’s football coverage so wonderful. It has nothing to do with the commentary, and everything to do with the absence of gambling adverts. Watching a football programme without being exhorted to gamble is so refreshing.

Like Michael Fuller (Letters, 7 December), I was horrified to see vending machines in our local hospital stuffed with sweets and crisps. Unwisely, I posted photos on local social media groups, linking them to obesity, diabetes and the difficulty of finding an NHS dentist, hoping to spark a debate. Instead, I got called a stuck-up C-word among other things – in the city that has just been voted the second happiest place to live in the UK.
