Your Say Your Halesowen

Is there any chance you can start to deliver your paper to the residents of Hunnington and Romsley again? After reading the news, I then take it to my mother to read as she no longer gets it. It is so unfair to the residents who are now subjected to read about news from the Bromsgrove area. How many residents of Romsley and Hunnington actually give a monkey’s about Whychbold, Droitwich, Barnt Green and the like. There are still items of news regarding the two villages still being printed in your paper but cannot be read by those residents. Fair?, I think not. Please start delivering again. If anyone else agrees, please bombard the News by proxy on behalf of these residents.  − Dave Bolton, Halesowen

We want the News back in Romsley and Hunnington! »

I have the answer to death island. First of all we have to look at the main problems which are :- TOO many cars using it, vehicles of differing levels of acceleration,trucks which are 50 feet long, buses to name but a few. So what is the answer, well first of all, lets look at the amount of cars, note, I said cars not vehicles We should buy some coaches and rent or buy land that could be used to park their cars somewhere in that location so they could drive to this field, park their car and be ferried to Birmingham by coach. We could call this PARK and RIDE. I bet nobody has ever thought of that – well every body except our local councils actually.  − Adrian Payne, Cradley Heath
