Oh my goodness, Pamela Clarke what a sad existence you must have when it comes to having to write to our local paper to moan and groan about dogs in shops.

I was astounded at your letter, I am sure Wilkos do not allow dogs, only assistance dogs and I am certain that a person with an allergy to dogs would walk to the other end of store out of the way.

In today’s society it’s not safe to leave our furry pooches tied outside due to the fear of them being stolen.

Why don’t you, dear Pamela watch the news and then you will see what real problems are, not a trivial little winge about dogs in shops.

With an attitude like yours maybe Ely is better off without you visiting our wonderful city.
