NEIGHBOURS, written by Mr Harry Hunter (Poet's Corner, Nov 21), made me feel that he lives in the wrong neighbourhood.

I find all my neighbours in Baxenden are extremely kind and willing. Everyone has said If I need anything, even in the middle of the night, I must ring them.

I have had my lawn mown, new curtains fitted, meals brought in, fruit and vegetables given me, errands etc, etc.

Move to Baxenden, Mr Hunter!
