Way past time to get on with building Nairn bypass

To read about the same old complete waffle regarding the so called “mythical bypass” (Courier, Nairnshire edition, 29/11/22) surely it’s about time for absolute and positive action.

During the normal everyday very busy times the central areas absolutely stink of very heavy fumes which cannot be helping health issues, especially when the air is very still.

I understand this subject has been going on from around 1958!

Donate stamps to help bone cancer charity

I am writing to you on behalf of Unofficial Friends of Bone Cancer Research Trust (charity number 1159590) to ask for your help at any time.

We are a group of people throughout the UK who are raising funds independently for this wonderful charity and we need help worldwide.

We would also like to thank everyone who has helped us over the last year.

With Christmas around the corner we are appealing for your support by asking everyone to save their used and new postage stamps from the UK and overseas, horizon labels (the gold or white labels that the UK post office stick on everything instead of stamps) first day covers and collections and now used and new postcards of any age from anywhere around the world.

Every stamp sent to us will help to fund life-saving research into primary bone cancer. It’s really easy for your friends and family to get involved.

If you can print the details in any editorials or onto websites and via social media links we would be so grateful.

We promise that everything that is sent to us will be sold in the appropriate way to raise the most we can, especially with stamp collections.

I am also admin for our Facebook group Friends Of BCRT – Postage Stamps and More! Stamp appeal updates will be added often. Please join as the more members we have the more money and awareness we will raise!

Primary bone cancer can occur at any age, but affects mostly children, teenagers, young adults and the elderly. Every 10 minutes somewhere in the world someone is diagnosed with primary bone cancer. Collecting used stamps is a simple way to make a huge difference.

Please note that our group is collecting any obsolete UK and foreign money now as well!
