I WOULD like to thank the little girl who, without being asked, picked up and carefully replaced everything that fell out of my shopping bag at the Poundland/Beales crossing point on Friday, October 30, at lunchtime.

This little girl – who could only have been primary school age – was so polite, well mannered and delightful and, as such, a credit to her parents, grandparents and school.

MISS S.E. MORGAN,

Hexham
