Excellent new look
Congratulations on the publication of your excellent tabloid newspaper. Let us hope the paper goes from strength to strength and you continue to headline local news stories, however silly they may sound.
Don’t take press release as gospel truth
Once again we hear that supermarket expansion will create new jobs (‘ASDA unveils its plans for a new superstore’09/02/12), without any qualification whatsoever.
Do you agree over Jubilee?
I was disgusted to discover that the Labour Group on Todmorden Town Council have removed a budget provision for small grants to local schools and Institutions that was to have enabled applications to support Diamond Jubilee Celebrations in honour of our Queen.
We can’t wait for next year’s winter pantomime
Regarding St Joseph’s Players winter pantomime production One Upon A Time - wow, what a performance!
They make it so hard - no wonder there is fly-tipping
IS IT any wonder that fly-tipping is such a problem in our and so many other areas?
Our only porkies!
In reply to Vincent Mulligans letter (January 26), I can assure Mr Mulligan that the only porkies he will get from Ham Corner are the pork pies that we sell over the counter!
Make them pay
My answer to your question: “Should the Judge have ordered the men to repay the prosecution costs and legal aid fees?”
Couldn’t you have been kinder?
To the person who dumped their pet lop-eared rabbit in the Centre Vale Park woods and Doghouse Lane area recently - just in case you were wondering what had become of it, I can tell you.
New supermarket is what we need
WHEN I read the news, I couldn’t believe that at long last it is getting nearer to a new supmarket in Todmorden.
Free for an hour in Hebden - but 60p in Tod
‘Even a car parked in the police bay…” (Todmorden News, January 26)
I had to go to Halifax - bleeding all the way . . .
After reading your front page headline story about the man who cut his hand I thought I would tell you mine.
They will still speed at 70mph
In replying to Peggy Thomas and S Moore letters regarding the ‘Governing’ of motor vehicals to 70mph and police vehicals to 80mph as an alternative to my suggestion of speed camaras being installed at Bellholme on Rochdale Road Walsden and at Scatcliffe on Burnley Road as a deterrant to the ludricus speeds that some drivers are doing at these locations.
Roger’s book is a wonderful read
I write regarding the Todmorden Album 5, to say a big “thank you” for the above book by Roger Birch.
Hitting the real blue badge users
In response to this week’s ‘Grumps’ , this grumpy old woman would like to express a few words of frustration and anger to the people who park regularly outside the town centre newsagent’s without a blue disabled parking badge.
Vet story raises question over health centre’s Sunday service
I READ with interest the article concerning the business man who had treatment at the vets for a cut hand.
