I WOULD like, through your paper, to thank the two ladies who came to my help on the November 15.

I was walking along St James Street when I tripped over uneven cobble stones.

Two ladies from shops on both sides on the road came to my aid and stayed with me until my niece picked me up (while waiting another lady fell over right in front of me).

I would like to thank them very much for their help, greatly appreciated.

The other lady was unhurt), unfortunately I wasn't so lucky. Maybe its time the local council took note.
