I READ Trevor Watt's letter in absolute amazement and disgust at such ignorance, intolerance and pure bigotry.

Everyone has a right to shop wherever they please - young or old alike, without fear of some impatient ignoramus chivvying them along.

We are all busy, leading too hectic lives but should all stop and ask ourselves have we forgotten the purpose of it all, to live alongside our fellow beings offering help, support, humour, patience and love.

You'll be old one day yourself and I hope I never have the misfortune to cross your path.
