REGARDING the letter headlined 'Special treatment' (Mailbox, October 13), can I point out that I have not, nor would I, associate myself with the views of the writer.

Perhaps this will put a stop to the many phone calls and unpleasant remarks that I and my family have received.

Joe Johnston,

Ludlow Drive, West Kirby.

l We are only too happy to confirm that Mr Johnston was not the Joe Johnston whose letter was published in last week's edition - Editor.
