COULD I add my support to the comments made by David Price (January 30) concerning the banning of dogs from outdoor sports areas.
It's a great idea, especially now that many dog owners assume that any open space is fair game for 'dog-walking'.
Might I also add the football pitch off Peachfield Road.
Every day, dozens of cars visit this area, and out come the dogs straight onto the pitch on Peachfield Common.
Children from Fruitlands often use this area, not to mention the local primary school.
There used to be a sign asking folk to 'pick-up'. It didn't last long! Guilt?
It was also interesting to see the recent photograph of protesters on Hayslan Fields.
There were more dogs than people!
I'd vote for houses rather than dogs anytime.
