Speaking as a born and bred Andover resident, I've just read Manuela's article (How lovely Andover is, Advertiser, July 28)
What planet is she on? She talks about council workers washing down pavements, of them trimming back bushes and hedges. It's absolute tosh.
I am one resident who is ashamed of this town and the way it has been destroyed over the years. I think it has taken away the valuable history of the town.
Present councillors need to look at themselves.
