Squawk, squawk! Here come parakeets

Last week I was in my garden enjoying the lovely weather when I heard a flock of noisy birds approaching.
Streetpastors are welcome

Regarding the Redhill Streetpastors (Life, July 1), may I say that anything that helps the homeless living on the streets of Redhill must be good.
Great carnival, great effort
12:45pm Thursday 18th June 2009
I would like to express my thanks to all of those involved in making Redhill and Reigate Carnival happen last weekend. A huge number of people contributed – most of all the committee, but also the stewards, performers, paraders, bands, sponsors, and many more. Again it was an excellent event, despite happening during a far more difficult economic climate than the last two carnivals.
Cemetery is such a disgrace

When I visited Horley cemetery I was disgusted and appalled to see overflowing bins that clearly hadn’t been emptied for weeks, so much so that there is rubbish blowing around the gravestones.

Real cost of the mayor’s Jag

I am sure most residents will have been flabbergasted to read about the purchase of a new Jaguar for the mayor of Reigate and Banstead Borough Council.
My thanks

My thanks to the family who came and found me on bank holiday Sunday to tell me my loved Burmese cat had been run over in Oakwood Road.
Inspirational nonsense
12:14pm Thursday 7th May 2009
Warmest congratulations on your photos of Horley’s St George’s Day. It’s a while since I was at school and I’m not sure of the authenticity of the characters depicted but what glorious inspirational nonsense.
One way to clear rubbish from the trees
1:10pm Monday 20th April 2009
May I write about choking? As a resident of the aesthetic Langshott estate, I noticed with dismay, as our beautiful trees and shrubs shed their autumnal leaves, how many were being choked by beer cans, plastic bags, bottles, traffic cones and sundry rubbish – all non-biodegradable – so they will stay and accumulate forever.
