Jason Mohammad takes your calls on Cardiff Airport, Alton Towers and children's books.

Do you support a planned 拢205m subsidy of Cardiff Airport? Your reaction to Alton Towers changing its eligibility rules for ride access passes. What makes a great children's book?

A planned 拢205.2m subsidy of Cardiff Airport will be challenged by Bristol Airport at a tribunal today... Lawyers for Bristol Airport are expected to argue that the size of the Welsh government subsidy is unprecedented in UK aviation and a breach of competition rules. The Welsh government has previously said it would defend the subsidy, and that it would "fight for our ability to invest" in Cardiff Airport's "long-term prosperity and shape its economic destiny". So, do you fly from Cardiff, does it need the investment?

Alton Towers is set to change its eligibility rules for ride access passes. Merlin Entertainments, which runs the theme park in Staffordshire, will no longer allow people with the conditions to skip the main queues. They say the number of people requesting the pass has been increasing, adding that disabled visitors have said the system "simply isn't working for them" and that "queue times for these guests have increased". It's your reaction to that...

Acclaimed children's author Julia Donaldson has announced a third instalment of the Gruffalo book series will be released...The latest book will be titled 'Gruffalo Granny is coming to stay' and will again feature illustrations from Axel Scheffler. What makes a great children's book?
