CORA Weaver of the Friends of Malvern Springs and Wells praises Coca Cola for supporting a local scheme for the preservation and conservation of our springs and wells heritage.

Cafe society
9:27am Tuesday 6th May 2008
I WOULD have thought that Councillor John Raine, would have found out what a cafe society was before writing his letter, published in last weeks edition of the Malvern Gazette, on St George and the dragon. To add flippantly 'whatever that is' shows his disdain for the idea.

Upton marina
9:18am Tuesday 6th May 2008
ALONG with many other people in and around Upton I am delighted that common sense has prevailed regarding the Marina appeal. The town is desperate for investment and surely this development will bring much needed income to the local traders.

Support for Jenny
4:24pm Tuesday 29th April 2008
I WOULD like to publicly record the excellent work that Jenny Lawrence has done in my division of Langland over a long period of time.

Rubbish collections
10:03am Tuesday 29th April 2008
COMMENTING upon the audit commission's annual report local media picked up upon the fact that MHDC's recycling and household waste collection is amongst the best in the country. It therefore begs the question of why is the current MHDC Tory administration currently considering reneging on their manifesto pledge to keep the weekly household waste collections. If they go for fortnightly collections thereby breaking their promise the electorate across the whole MHDC area will not forgive them and they have long memories.

THE staff in the physiotherapy department at Ledbury Community Hospital would like to take this opportunity to thank the League of Friends of Ledbury Hospital for their generosity in buying some new blinds for the windows of our department.

Thank you Jenny

Administration record
9:44am Monday 28th April 2008
I AM both delighted that Lynne and Pete Browne finally got permission for their parasol and in total agreement with their view that the future of Great Malvern is very much at a critical crossroads.

St George and the Dragon
9:40am Monday 28th April 2008
SO the proprietors of Pepper & Oz now cast themselves (along with the people of Malvern) as St George, and the planners and councillors of Malvern Hills District Council as the dragon, following the outcome of the latest round of the purple parasol saga. (Malvern Gazette, Your Letters, April 25) Well of course everyone is entitled to their view. But, hang on a minute is not the one half of team St George the same Pete Brown who, until recently donning his apron at Pepper & Oz, was himself a senior council official (dragon?) as head of waste management at the County Council - making and implementing all the many rules and constraints on what the good citizens might and might not do with their rubbish and recycling? He, of all entrepreneurs, ought to understand and respect the important role that public regulatory bodies like council planning departments and English Heritage play in protecting and enhancing the quality of life and character of places like Malvern.
