Madam,

It was good to see that M&S will be opening their store in Aberystwyth on 23 March and more so that they will create 150 jobs which is good news for Aberystwyth and the county. Income to the county from business tax will be a big boost for the county as well.

I now refer to the doom and gloom comments made by Cllr Mair Benjamin, who still appears to live in the past with regards to the old day centre, which according to the county council they don’t have to provide.

Now we are hearing her opinion on traffic problems. What doom and gloom. Isn’t she happy that 150 people will have a job. I am.

Yours etc,

Ray Blackburne, Penparcau Aberystwyth.
