Tony Booker says he's becoming "vaguely irritated" that the At The Bar column in our Friday If It's On... section does not appear to mention beer.
"If I go to a bar," he says, "it is to have a drink, not to admire the chintz curtains or study the local watercolours in the loo."
He cites the example of one recent review, which referred to "standard alcoholic beverages".
"What on earth is one of those?" he asks. Another review referred to a "trendy bar/caf" but failed to say whether it had beer or not.
Mr Booker continues: "Brighton and Hove is lucky to have such a variety of pubs that it is impossible to visit them all.
"It would be nice, therefore, if when a particular establishment is featured, information is given on the drinks on offer so that a visit can be contemplated.
"If, say, the beers are all fizzy, chemical ones, I will avoid at all costs whereas if it is well-kept real ale properly dispensed by hand-pump I would go for a look-see (nb: Draught means properly dispensed ale, not lagers and the like, which are forcibly dispensed by CO2 gas. Your reviewers, when beer is mentioned, frequently get this wrong)."
Point taken, Mr Booker, and our reviewers shall be told.
Tarot reader and complementary therapist Abigail Trenchard, from Brighton, points out that we mistakenly used her picture with a story about the Mind Body Soul exhibition at Brighton Racecourse in last Friday's what's on section. Sorry Abigail.
Now, a resolution - yes, a resolution - of the Brighton Unemployed Centre's management committee (Bill North, Alison Walsh and Shanti Haft) following our story on March 22 about volunteer crche worker Matthew Hobday's conviction for downloading pornographic images of children.
Firstly, they wish to point out the comments in the story made by their centre's secretary, Tony Greenstein, were made in a personal capacity and were "not necessarily reflective of the centre as a whole".
Fair enough, but then they "express concern over the sensational nature of the article overall", adding: "The use of a large photograph (of Hobday) was an irresponsible use of media power as it may provoke vigilante attacks".
What nonsense! A community worker with access to youngsters is convicted of 16 charges of making indecent photographs of children and you complain about the size of the picture we use of HIM!
Sorry, committee members, but I know where my sympathy lies and, I suspect, that of a lot of readers too. And it's not with that nasty sex offender.
Our report on March 29 of the Falmer stadium public inquiry stated that Tom Carr was the final witness to give evidence for Falmer and Rottingdean Parish Councils. In fact, he was followed by Toby Rollerstone, says Kate Harrison, from Rottingdean.
She adds: "Mr Rollerstone made some very cogent points, which have been completely ignored by your reporter who I suspect was not even there at the time. If in fact he was actually there he owes it to readers to give a factual and honest report.
"You do a disservice to both your newspaper and its readers if you withhold facts and treat the public as a group to whom it does not matter if they don't get the whole story."
Quite so, Kate. However, in fairness to our reporter Chris Baker (who has faithfully reported the whole inquiry so far), Mr Carr had been scheduled to be the last witness but Chris had to leave during his evidence to help our team reporting on the West Pier fire.
It was a question of priorities and, to my mind, he picked the right one.
