Deia was unspoilt until the opening of La Residencia, the hotel you described last week. Now the world’s wealthy waddle their way to the expensive boutiques and restaurants in the village accompanied by their unspoilt leggy blondes. Unspoilt, Michael? You don’t know the meaning of the word.

In adding to La Residencia, the Orient-Express group destroyed centuries-old olive trees and the Moorish terracing that supported them in order to build the frightful wing behind the original buildings. Locals call it the crematorium, the hen house and the factory.

We like your trendy haircut displayed in last week’s photo. How much did it cost? Or was it a freebie from Boris Johnson’s barber as a marketing ploy?

Having suffered Winner’s barbed comments for many years I’ve finally decided to change my name. What does he recommend? Evian, Perrier or San Pellegrino?

Your 46-room house as described last week sounds lovely and must have cost a fortune. Since you’ve plummeted off the Sunday Times Rich List have you found it’s built on radioactively contaminated land? That or the drop in property prices is really hitting hard.
