WITH reference to Mr Stone’s letter in last week’s edition of the Advertiser I feel that I must strongly disagree about the lack of well known high street shops.

I find that almost anything can be bought here.

The variety of shops is very good.

Coming from a slightly larger town in Kent I really enjoy my visits to Andover.

The people are friendly and the town has lots to see and do.

And although some shops are now out of town simply getting on a bus or by taxi easily makes it accessible to everyone.

So three cheers for Andover.
