| I salute our armed forces | | 12:24pm Saturday 17th May 2008 | | I HAVE been greatly encouraged by those who have written letters to express their appreciation for the men and women of our armed forces. |
| Isolation of being deaf | | 12:23pm Saturday 17th May 2008 | | WHAT a brilliant article by Sue Cotton for Deafness Aware Week (Daily Echo, May 6). |
| Caring for the relatives | | 12:22pm Saturday 17th May 2008 | | PETER Moorby's relatives' experience was the opposite to what I and my family experienced when we sat for two days when my mother was dying at Southampton General Hospital (Letters, May 10). |
| Don't be such kill-joys | | 12:21pm Saturday 17th May 2008 | | THE New Forest was originally intended for hunting. Is it now solely for sedate walks? |
| New houses of today may not last 30 years | | 12:11pm Saturday 17th May 2008 | | WE are being told the number of new homes being built plunged by 27 per cent. Not in my area it hasn't as new homes are springing up like mushrooms, overcrowding areas and at prices which locals cannot afford. They are spoiling the town (ie one building knocked down and a block of flats put up in its place). This has been allowed to take place in quite a few places. |
| No wonder Island tourism is down | | 12:10pm Saturday 17th May 2008 | | WE booked with Red Funnel to take our car across to the Isle of Wight on the 9pm sailing on the Friday of the May bank holiday weekend. |
| Well-dressed cabbies | | 12:08pm Saturday 17th May 2008 | | HOW sad it is that the council must ask cabbies to be well dressed. |
| I shop at Morrisons | | 10:00am Saturday 17th May 2008 | | I TOTALLY agree with Mrs A J Bryant (Letters, May 10) regarding Asda in Totton, the only difference being I started boycotting them about 18 months ago. |
| I boycott Asda too | | 10:00am Saturday 17th May 2008 | | I COMPLETELY agree with AJ Bryant, Asda continues to rip the heart out of Totton. I have felt this for many years and boycott it. |
| Quad bikes at Fun Day | | 10:00am Friday 16th May 2008 | | AN article appeared in the Daily Echo on May 2, headlined Backlash Over Quad Bike Ban at Fun Day. |
| Litterbugs go scot-free | | 10:00am Friday 16th May 2008 | | FOR many years we have lived in a surveillance society with CCTV cameras at regular intervals on most main city streets. |
| So-called 'sale' of playing fields | | 10:00am Friday 16th May 2008 | | IN response to concerns raised about the so- called 'sale' of Bitterne Park School playing fields, can we stress that this is far from the case. |
| A poor example | | 10:00am Friday 16th May 2008 | | REGARDING the report of the sex attack on a teenage girl in Palmerston Park (Daily Echo, May 7), I find the comments of Detective Inspector Linda Howard unbelievable. |
| How we won a rates reduction | | 10:00am Thursday 15th May 2008 | | IN 1965, with the construction of the hard runway underway at Southampton Airport, a group of Bitterne Park and Townhill Park residents met to consider an application to the Southampton district valuer, for a reduction in their rateable values. It is not a local authority matter. |
| Petrol is cheaper on the Isle of Wight | | 10:00am Thursday 15th May 2008 | | I WONDER why the residents of the Waterside are paying so much for their petrol when the Esso refinery at Fawley is so close. |
| Another great prize | | 10:00am Thursday 15th May 2008 | | Another great prize
IN 1998 I was very lucky to win a Daily Echo competition to spend seven nights aboard the new cruise ship Enchantment of the Seas in the Caribbean. It was fantastic. |
