Sir - I was so sad to see this letter (March 2), not only printed but highlighted in your paper. There are of course two sides to a story and the Oxfordshire Museum and coffee bar are an excellent service to every age group. The coffee bar is a wonderful amenity for everyone to use and the hard-working staff do an excellent job, but it is only small and has to pay its way.
This person, I understand, had already had free hot water to feed the baby and without so much as buying a cup of coffee, used one area for a considerable time when the place was busy and paying customers had left through lack of places to sit. So how selfish can he be?
Dr Morgan said the rest of the family were enjoying the museum, which is totally free of charge. Maybe they should have thought to feed the baby before the visit?
And if Dr Morgan is going to use this in his lectures, I hope he will tell the whole story - maybe he should do more research into situations.
A.J. Pomfret (Mrs), Wootton, near Woodstock
