❚ Now I’ve seen it all. Up the top of Saddle Rd on Wednesday were two eager beavers with a rubbish bag searching for bits of paper or the odd bottle. I mean like, get real. What’s the point of wasting time on a goat track?

❚ Re Peter Lampp’s column re the future of racing clubs and overcoming parochiali­sm in the decision-making. Much of the same applies to many golf clubs around

the country, both urban and rural viz Manor Park and Feathersto­n Golf Club’s recent problems. MT

❚ Excellent news re Kiwibuild houses under this great Government. At least their heads aren’t buried in the sand, Pam and her ilk.

❚ The present Government makes people worse off. More taxes. Labour PM wasted $80k to go to Nauru separately. This Government can’t run the country. Simon

❚ Am in support of text by BS in Thursday’s paper re roads. Start learning how to drive. Also, people should learn to read. Stop means what it says. GT

❚ Reading the article regarding the road toll in the Horizons area. It’s driver attitudes that need to change. To get wherever you are going as fast as you can at whatever cost is the problem. Get rid of that and the toll will drop.

❚ When is Air Chathams coming to Palmerston North?
