SIR - Celebrities who have spent thousands of pounds trying to keep youthful looks ought first to have consulted Bertha Booth, left, who recently celebrated her 105th birthday.

Your picture of this remarkable person (T&A, January 7) portrayed a lady who belies her age by many years, and I'll wager she never underwent any cosmetic surgery.

Definitely the picture of the week.
