WHAT an interesting letter from someone who does not live in Andover, but thinks our shopping situation is fine.
“Although some shops are now out of town simply getting on a bus or by taxi makes it easily accessible for everyone”.
Everyone except the old, the disabled, the afflicted, those who are not on a good bus route and those who cannot afford taxis, or for whom energy and/or time are in short supply.
Perhaps the insensitive and unimaginative writer should try actually living in Andover, without a car, and meeting some of the above, for whom life is not simple.
Margaret Reichlin, Upper Enham
