MAY I take this opportunity to thank all those kind people who helped me when I had a very nasty fall on a protruding paving stone in London Road on Christmas Eve?

One lady even brought a duvet cover out of her house to wrap me in and my daughter-in-law, who was with me at the time, tells me that many other people came to my aid.

It is so good to know that in this troubled world such kindness still exists.

Bless you all.
