Dear Editor,

I am 16 and I live in Pucklechurch. I read your report on the anti-social behaviour, and I was very offended because you didn't include one of the younger villager's points of view. I was at that meeting on October 7th, and we were told to give our point of view for it to be heard. I have seen no evidence that our views have been heard. Police are called on a regular basis, and most of the time we are moved from where we are for other people's wrongs. If some alternative places were made, then maybe there would be less anti-social behaviour. You said in your report that you are losing clubs in the Village Hall. Maybe they could be replaced with youth clubs, and with that you would be able to raise money and lose children (teens) hanging around causing trouble. Thank you for reading my view, and I hope it will be heard.

Your views are most welcome in the Pucklechurch News. We hope that the meetings that have taken place since you wrote this letter in November have given you an opportunity to be heard and contribute to more and better activities for young people in the village. We encourage anyone with a point of view, young and old alike, to send in contributions to this newsletter. -- Ed.

Dear Editor,

How lucky we are to have the talents of the Pucklechurch Players! Once again, we enjoyed superb entertainment watching the pantomime Bluebeard. Here's wishing the Players a very happy New Year.
