Happily ever after

Sir: Martin Vander Weyer's excellent arts centre at Helmsley, North Yorkshire is in the money. I am delighted to report that, after failing to scoop £110,000 from Brus- sels CA pot of gold called "Objective 5(b)"', 9 September), the National Lottery has just awarded him £275,000.
