Two Forumites have made great contributions...
First Chris Precious in the letters page.
Excellent letter Chris, I was tempted to do a response myself but my attention has been diverted elsewhere and a good job too, there is no way I could have expressed myself as well as you did. You really placed that ill informed Mr Logan and his 'peacenik' views in his place.
The there is our Jeanette Harper in her column, excellent as usual.
Go for it girl, you are really speaking my language. Something really needs to be done about the yobs and today's so called punishments are far too soft. It makes sense to me in this age where appearance and image are so important that a spot of humiliation and pain is the best way to bring these animals to heel....
A refreshing read in all....

Thanks for that BarryW..will certainly have a read later. Sadly neither Chris nor Jeanette seem to have been contributing on here lately which is a bit of a shame...but they are certainly welcome.

On a different note, today's Dover Express incorrectly identified a picture of Russell Gardens as Kearsney Abbey.
Shurely shome mishtake. The subs should get out more!

I fully agree with Barry on the two letters. I must admit that I got halfway through Mr Logan's letter and gave up, it to my mind ranked alongside the holocaust denial people. Well done Chris in bringing us all back to reality.
As to Jeanette's column, well I naturally wholeheartedly agree with her. How about bringing back national service? Or better than that, forget ASBO's make them do unpaid work doing something useful like road building for instance.

Yes Andrew I also noticed they had got the incorrect picture for Kearsney Abbey .I think they need to get out more .
On anotrher topic I did not dissapoint and wore a Pink Hat.
I did not see Paul B with his camera otherwise I would have smiled sweetly for him .
I think there were three attendees who required medical attention .I dont think it was my hat .
