WHAT nonsense in W Grove's recent letter. Surely the writer can appreciate these local business people are merely trying to make an honest living?

Not everyone can afford to drive a BMW or a Mercedes straight from the showroom.

I notice that the writer fails to mention the most fantastic Indian restaurant and well-stocked liquor store that also adorn the gateway to the Spa. Presumably the writer frequents these two business' quite often?

As a local resident, I encourage and applaud any emerging local enterprise, as I would much rather spend my money in Droitwich than be forced to travel to Birmingham.
