• I GREATLY enjoyed Jeremy Robson’s moving poem Turning Back the Clock (Review, November 3).

At 86 I avoid the risk of falling off ladders to change clocks twice a year by relying on online geek robots to change the time on my smartphone and computer.

This has prevented further mishaps like missing the first act of a matinée or arriving an hour early for lunch to find my hostess still in her underwear and wondering if I would ever receive another invitation.
