Thunder not stolen

I WRITE in response to your article (Gazette, September 20), regarding the Town Show matter.

Councillor Mike Northeast is reported as saying I had first put forward the idea of splitting the Town Show from the Family Fun Day. It was in fact councillor Joyce Bowyer’s bright idea prior to me taking the chairmanship of the community resources committee.

As she has taken the lead on this for so long, I wouldn’t wish to steal her thunder!
