Would Weymouth people rather be in Bridport?
11:29am Thursday 2nd February 2012 in Your letters
Well, there you go good people of Weymouth – 2012 and all that.
Roads closed, town centre gridlocked, park and ride extortionate, place jammed with people who will never return, regular grockles staying away, buses on strike, and you have to pay a fortune to use an area given to people as a free amenity.
The good news is that you can get to see (with binoculars) a lot of little boats bobbing about, which is usual for Weymouth.
Don’t you just wish you lived in Bridport?
C Johns, Alexandra Court, Bridport

re they still point at aeroplanes?
Seriously though, although there are a small number of backward thinking nimby's that are objecting about the disruption, the vast majority of people of Weymouth welcome the modernisation of our town.
The regular moaners in this paper, have been complaining ever since the railways arrived, bringing with them noisy town folk from that there London place.
Every town has them, and by and large they are harmless.
Even the "Keep Weymouth in the dark ages" group have failed in most of their objections to progress in this town, & long may that situation continue.
Unfortunately for Bridport, nobody yet has considered it worthwhile dragging into the 20th, let alone the 21st Century :-)

A ginormous chunk of the blame lies at the feet of the nasty nimby xenphobes who constantly whinge and complain about everything.
