I write to The Auroran with regard to comments David Heard chose to mention and the approval The Auroran gave to permit its printing.
\nI\u2019m beginning to lose interest quickly when I come upon anything that this person has to say verbally within a public forum or written within a local paper.
\nIf my memory serves me correctly, David also used to have his own \u201cpersonal column\u201d so it seemed within The Auroran that he frequently used only to discuss his personal issues and misfortunes.
\nI say this, and publish it if you so wish: David! It\u2019s a farmers\u2019 market. I believe for whatever reason you were moved was for the overall benefit of the market.
\nFarm produce, consumable items like baked goods, jams and jellies, sweet corn, lettuce. Not t-shirts and photos of historic buildings. Non-related items should be grouped and merchandised separately. You don\u2019t see summer shorts for sale at pet food stores. I believe it\u2019s simply a marketing and merchandising decision of which I support.
\nI\u2019m appalled that David has used your local paper to imply that a hearing impairment may cause a safety issue for him when in fact he only wishes to remain front stage and centre at the market. I\u2019m not sold and excuse me\u2026I\u2019m trying to purchase a pound of homemade butter.
