ONE hopes people will take time to read both letters offered by the NDL on June 15: one by National Party Senator John Williams and one by independent Tony Windsor.
ON three occasions in the past week as I have been driving towards pedestrian crossings people have walked from the footpath onto the crossing in front of me, looking neither to left or right, while texting on their mobile phones.
I AGREE with Barry Ford, (NDL, June 18). Pedestrians should give oncoming traffic some thought when only one car is coming to the crossing. Why step out in front of it when there are no other cars following; let it go and then cross the road.
I wish to bring to your attention a paragraph out of a recent Sydney newspaper regarding the Gillard/ Rudd Labor party dilemma: Should we bring Rudd back?
MARK Rodda suggests readers should ask someone from Armidale about his alleged “exorbitant” rental costs increase by changing their phone to the NBN. Maybe he should do that before making his comments.
Friday’s NDL report of council’s decision to close part of Locks Ln (presumably preventing through traffic between Scott Rd and Ebsworth St) seems somewhat of an example of local “overkill”.
