Thank you for the picture of the goats strolling through Llandudno (31 March), apparently window shopping, keeping well apart, and giving a wide berth to the sheep’s wool shop. It might have been captioned “Coronavirus News: Clear Priorities”. Which is an anagram of “Our Capricorn visitors ’ere in Wales”.

• Re mountain goats at large in Llandudno, I once witnessed an even more bizarre sight in south Wales in the late 1960s. Visiting Treherbert on a busy Saturday afternoon, I was astonished to see sheep strolling in and out of Woolworths. Equally surprising was the attitude of the shoppers who seemed to regard it as an unremarkable though inconvenient occurrence.

• I see that Llandudno, which used to be a ghost town, has become a goats’ town.

• Which is now the more useful PPE? Philosophy, politics and economics (the degree of choice for many aspiring politicians), or personal protective equipment?
