Andrew Matthews, Wellow:

In this festive season of community goodwill, courtesy and consideration, it was depressing to see the actions of a callous and mindless individual who chose to dump a toilet bowl and cistern in a West Wight AONB on Broad Lane near Freshwater despite easy booking and access to the local Afton recycling facility.

Do any West Wight residents recognise the distinctive avocado coloured toilet set or have recently had one removed?

If so, inform the police of the  culprit's name and details because, as we all know, fly-tipping is a criminal offence!

Happy New Year to all law abiding Island residents!
