I AM writing to support Macmillan Cancer Support’s campaign to freeze out fuel poverty for cancer patients.

Supplying some gas safety facts

Hamilton Advertiser — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 00:00:00 GMT

HAVING read the article in last week’s Advertiser about Hamilton parents claiming St Peter’s Primary pupils’ lives were being put at risk through the use of gas heaters in a school’s classrooms, we felt the need to set the record straight.

Well done the Accies

THE atmosphere at New Douglas Park, home of Accies, on Saturday was, to put it mildly, electrifying.

Improve this area

I WANT to thank the Advertiser for raising the issue of South Lanarkshire Crematorium’s remembrance garden. It is in an absolutely awful state, and has been since the crematorium opened.

Action urgently needed

Disrespecting the dead in this way is simply inexcusable

Hamilton Advertiser — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 00:00:00 GMT

I READ the article on South Lanarkshire Crematorium in last week’s Advertiser with great interest.

Insistent that council were right to sack staff over perv e-mails

Hamilton Advertiser — Wed, 24 Dec 2008 00:00:00 GMT

I AM writing this letter to the person with no conscience who reversed their vehicle out of my street, managing to hit my car from the wheel arch all the way to the middle of the back door.
