Sir, – In Michael Harding’s article about a couple in a cafe, he states: “She was eating her own sandwich. She took out of her handbag’' (”I witnessed the intimacies and exquisite tenderness of mature love in the cafe of a large department store”, Life, June 29th). There seemed to be no consideration that the lady may be a coeliac or had some other dietary constraints. I am coeliac and know only too well that there have been many occasions when I am out that my needs were not adequately met, if at all. – Yours, etc,
