The Lions Club thanks supporters of concert.

11:37am Monday 28th April 2008

THE members of the Crewe and Nantwich Lions Club, through the columns of your newspaper, would like to thanks all those who supported the Concert, held at the Civic Hall, Nantwich, in February, with the Crewe Male Voice Choir and the Lions Youth Brass.

Bless the memory of Gwyneth Dunwoody!

11:32am Monday 28th April 2008

On April 18 that Veteran Labour MP Gwyneth Dunwoody, the longest-serving female MP in Parliament, died at the age of 77.

Where were Lib Dems when they were needed?

11:29am Monday 28th April 2008

CLEAR SPRINGS BAIL ACCOMMODATION I suppose I should thank the three Liberal Democrat councillors for their reminder about the planning issues surrounding the two Clear Springs bail houses in St Johns Ward (Guardian, April 24). But as always they are too late in taking action and are now resorting to scare tactics.

Clear Springs have cleared off, but will they be back?

9:46am Tuesday 22nd April 2008

MEDIA coverage of the Clear Springs' bail accommodation controversy has consistently ignored the underlying planning issue.

It's Labour that have got Queen's Park sorted!

9:40am Tuesday 22nd April 2008

I FEEL I must respond to the criticism I have received in your readers' letters page, surprisingly from a disgruntled failed Tory candidate who won't, thankfully, be standing in the local elections.

Dismissal of an appeal for Millhouse

DISMISSAL OF AN APPEAL FOR MILLHOUSE.

Twentyeight accidents is too many for road!

11:03am Tuesday 15th April 2008

AFTER reading the article on Traffic System. I would like to point out that I have lived in Maw Green for fifty-seven years and seen a country road turn into a racetrack - Sydney Road from Sydney Bridge to Remer Street, to the school. One petition 145 people signed, private traffic census in one hour - 143 cars, 16 vans, 11 artic's, 7 tip wagons, 6 motorbikes, 2 ambulances, 1 police car.

Stop and think before blaming others for traffic jam.

I SMILED when I read your response GH, to the letter regarding a work journey. You are quite right actually that a lot of people will travel in their cars to work when they could walk just as quickly and save the planet at the same time! You stated that "you appreciate for many people alternative methods of transport may not be available, but in this case it is", how do you know that? Is it not a little presumptuous to assume this person is not one of those? I only work a short distance away from home but I don't have an option of walking to work. I would love to be able to walk, to take in the fresh air and be relaxed when I arrived at work but quite simply, I can't. My job involves repair, and quite often I take my work home, which is heavy and large, so it would be impossible to carry home or even to balance it on a bike! And the congestion at the railway station roundabout could be caused by people travelling out of Crewe to work as they can't find a suitable job in Crewe within walking/biking distance, so there again it is presumptuous of you to assume that they could all walk/bike to work. Before you get your soapbox out, Mr/Mrs/Miss GH, I suggest you stop and think, there may be some background you are unaware of, the writer may be disabled and that is why they travelled a short distance to work in their car. Here's MY assumption GH, that YOU are the one "who always blames somebody else in the world" for everything, without knowing the facts.

Why should Crewe pay more for petrol than Stoke?

10:55am Tuesday 15th April 2008

CREWE West Conservative Campaigners (Goff, Parker, Weatherill) are very concerned that Crewe residents are currently paying a 5p per Litre premium for their fuel compared to Stoke on Trent. What is our local MP, Gwyneth Dunwoody, doing to rectify this gross injustice?

Save Crewe Baths for Crewe!

10:50am Tuesday 15th April 2008

I AM putting this petition forward on behalf of Mr Frank Hough of the Crewe Baths' Seahorse Swimming Club for disabled youngsters.
