Try for grant elsewhere

1:29pm Sunday 23rd December 2007

I cannot understand why John Fowles did not suggest the youth club applyfor a grant fromStroud District Council. As I understand its grants are available but need to be applied for by the end of October to be allocated for the following year.

Come on Sodbury, get writing

12:15pm Sunday 23rd December 2007

Being a regularreader of your pages I am of the opinion that in the letters page there does not seem to be much input from Chipping Sodbury residents as opposed those of Thornbury and concluded that some balance be required.

Bus 312

1:23pm Friday 21st December 2007

BLUE FOR THE 312 ANGRY. This is how I feel about the carve-up of this service. How can they justify cutting off Thornbury from its nearest train station and university? We are told to cut car miles and use public transport, yet at the same time there is to be a mere two-hour service at best.

Applause for ACT

11:27am Tuesday 18th December 2007

In response to your "name and address supplied" correspondent, may I say how much I applaud the vision and adventurous ambition of ACT (Arts and Community in Thornbury). Contrary to your corespondent's assertion, Thornbury Arts Festival do fill the Armstrong Hall when high calibre acts appear. To attract and accommodate great artists we need a great venue.

Last word on the subject

I AM criticised for being a doctor who advocates the freedom of choice to smoke in pubs.
