AT LAST a sensible letter about Andover shops (Barrie Wickens, Advertiser).
I wholeheartedly agree, we won’t get big-name stores in Andover as we are surrounded by larger towns where all the big names, John Lewis, Debenhams etc have large stores.
You can’t blame the council for us not having a department store, the larger names just don’t want to come. So let’s appreciate what we’ve got in Andover with our smaller units, shop where we can and enjoy our town for what it is: a pleasant place to live with some really nice people, most of whom are happy to help others and stop for a smile and a chat.
There’s nowhere else like it.
