Photo spreads are great for gift wrap

I save the central pages of the Guardian when they are particularly attractive and use them to wrap gifts (Letters, 27 November), suiting the theme to the contents or the recipient. Friday’s Maradona Eyewitness photos would be great for a football-mad nephew. To wrap small presents, I’ve been keeping interesting cuttings that I hope will amuse my friends and that they can then put in their recycling bins. Down with glitter and glossy paper!
