I AM disappointed that someone has castigated our favourite butcher DT Waller as a villain for parking his vans outside his shop and causing obstruction to the highway.

We are more than happy that Mr Waller strives to create work for the local farming communities and those connected to it by buying all his excellent quality produce locally.

If they are so concerned about our parking then let me reassure that person that the temporary stops that Wallers vans make purely for offloading carcasses is nothing to compare with what we willingly put up with in New Street.

We have on a daily basis people parking their cars willy nilly and going off somewhere else to work or shop.

That should stop. Yellow lines all the way down New Street would stop that. Period.
