Only yesterday my ears were subjected to a hefty assault from the louts on mopeds, which the little buggers seem to think is highly amusing to remove the baffles from their exhausts. You’ll often see them revving up and down the road with an offensive bombardment of noise, scaring young and old. Then, as I walked further down the road, my ears suffered another battering from those lazy sods with an ‘NVQ in tyre fitting’ at Kwik Fit, shouting to each other across the forecourt using the most undesirable and immoral language. What is the world coming to?

And don’t get me started on the boys in their souped up Novas with music booming and blaring. Surely they don’t think that fellow citizens have the same appreciation of Drum & Bass as they do? I, for one, do not. There is a time and place for this sort of music and it’s not in the High Street. Your mothers won’t let you play it that loud at home for good reason. It’s crap!

Somerfields: Piss poor?

On an entirely different subject, I have had it with ‘Somerfields’. What is the Savercard all about? They're telling me I can’t get a deal on a bottle of red wine without my Savercard? What outrage! I shall pledge no allegiance to a supermarket that chooses to exploit their customers in this manner. Scumerfields have very little in the way of choice at best. At worst, goods are overpriced and quality is poor. These corporate wolves didn’t invent the store card for our benefit, hell no - it’s just another way to cream money off us in the guise of so called ‘loyalty rewards’.

It’s all a sham. They know we won’t shop around if we believe that we get something for loyalty, when in actual fact we have stopped other shops from driving their prices down. Real consumerism is about shopping around, customer choice and getting the best quality and price, so come on fellow Keynsham-ites, let’s make them think about it - shop where it’s cheaper. It doesn’t have to be forever, just until the likes of Somerfield see that they can’t exploit us any longer. Anna Cacia-Court
