School reunion

3:24pm Friday 16th May 2008

FURTHER to my letter of a couple of months ago concerning a proposed reunion for former pupils of Norton Primary School (Radnorshire) it has now been arranged for the afternoon of July 17, in Presteigne. Anyone who has not already contacted me should please be in touch by the end of June (on 01432 760524). The school closed 50 years ago in July.

No way to encourage shoppers to city

3:21pm Friday 16th May 2008

I WAS appalled to see the proposed rise in car park charges within the city; this is no way to encourage shoppers.

Nothing was too much trouble

3:19pm Friday 16th May 2008

I WAS admitted to Hereford County Hospital, after being taken ill whilst visiting family nearby. I am very impressed with all the care from everyone not just on the ward but other departments. Nothing was too much trouble and done with a pleasant approach. Thanks once more.

Sportsmen to lead a ban on spitting?

3:18pm Friday 16th May 2008

THERE is a great deal of talk concerning tuberculosis in the media, and rightly so, for it is a very debilitating, if not deadly, disease.

The ducks, they’ve gone on strike

4:55pm Wednesday 14th May 2008

NO, Mr John Miller (May 1), your experience of roaming ducks around High Town and beyond was by no means due to your over-imbibing. They’ve gone on strike. Just fancy one ever getting into the council office. Here’s another true story. In my wee pond around the corner, I have again this year a mother duck lovingly caring for her brood of four. I’m feeding them, and my small courtyard is now inundated and soiled by many duck friends who can’t quite make it to Tesco but are madly keen to assert their rights to a healthy meal. Yesterday a kindly and distraught lady visited me to find out what had happened to my little family.

When the Bluebirds last played in the final

Arthur Muffett will be glued to his TV screen this weekend, 81 years after he watched Cardiff City play in an FA Cup Final.

4:53pm Wednesday 14th May 2008

WITH reference to the Cup Final 2008. I was taken by my father to see the Cup Final at the (new) Wembley Stadium when Cardiff City won the FA Cup 81 years ago.

No way through when there really is

8:00am Saturday 10th May 2008

DO any other of your readers share my increasing annoyance at the spate of unreliable ‘Road Closed’ notices which are proliferating the Shobdon and Pembridge areas of the county at present.

Time for another ‘rubbish’ campaign

8:00am Saturday 10th May 2008

THANK you Hereford Times for yet again publishing the letters about the state of our city (I remember your previous Don’t rubbish Hereford campaign).

Together we could change bad habits

8:00am Friday 9th May 2008

I was interested to see the letters about litter in Hereford as I too have felt this friendly and attractive city is being blighted by litter which spoils it for residents and visitors alike. I know, from conversations with both friends and council officials responsible for the collection of litter, that the problem seems greater than the resources available to deal with it.

Just a derelict heap

8:00am Friday 9th May 2008

Is anything going to be done about that derelict heap that used to be Campions Restaurant on the riverbank as you go over Greyfriars Bridge into Hereford?
