FOR many years, I have read your letters page with great interest. It is my favourite part of the newspaper -- all the different people writing about all sorts of topics.

But I've found in the last two years we have a writer called K Sowerbutts, who seems to be in every day.

Now, letter-writing is probably his hobby and good luck to him. But I've found myself looking away now whenever I see his letters.

The whole enjoyment for me is hearing the different points from all different people, not one man's opinions nearly every day.

STEPHEN LEE, Windsor Road, Great Harwood.

Footnote: Although Mr Sowerbutts is among the regular contributors to this page, his letters do not appear as often as Mr Lee supposes -- but at an average of once every seven days so far this year -- Editor.
