SIR - My apologies to Peter A Rushforth for getting his name wrong, it certainly wasn't intentional (T&A, August 2).

However, there is little I can do about what I look like and while I can't guarantee the T&A will provide a photo more to his liking I will see what can be done as I don't want him to be diverted from understanding more about climate change.

The intense rain in 1903 is a good example of the one in 100 years exceptional extremes that have always happened.

It's when storms like this happen every few years, as in Carlisle, Boscastle, Helmsley, Hull, Doncaster, Sheffield, Tewkesbury and Gloucester, that it is clear change is taking place.
