I’VE been looking at proposals for “Great British Railways”. Yes, I know, I’ve got to get out more. It will be a publicly owned “single national leader of railways”, issuing contracts to train companies, etc (and providing opportunities for more executive salaries).

I WAS sad to read in the Advertiser (July 28) of the death of former Garnett Dickinson Group and Rotherham Advertiser owner John Dickinson.

I’D like if I may to thank Comrade Foulstone for both his irony and humour.

A BIT of sunshine and we grind to a standstill. I thought it was only snow that caused that, not nice weather.

WHAT’S happened to Rotherham? I’ve only been a resident for just over 20 years, but I’ve had family here for most of my life and visited almost weekly as an adolescent and teenager, and in those days it was a really great town.
