SO, SOME anonymous Wilmslow writer thinks Macclesfield is full of sportswear clad, working class scallies who 'pollute the atmosphere' by 'urinating and spitting in every available alley way' does he? Well let me tell him something about his fellow Wilmslovians.

For a start most of them don't work. Secondly the majority are too drunk to navigate their way down any alley way and couldn't spell 'atmosphere' if their life depended on it.

If Wilmslow writer Prong-Stanchion, as he calls himself, is going to get into the name calling business - of which I have some considerable experience - I suggest he gets his facts right.

Macclesfield is a place of culture. Stand outside the town hall at the weekend and marvel at the skate boarders as they scatter shoppers with their amazing acrobatics.

Watch in awe as the Silk Road turns into a late night drag-strip for under-age drivers. Listen to the poetic excuses trotted out daily by local louts in our magistrates' court.

So, Proud Truncheon, or whatever your name is, before you talk about Macclesfield being full of sportswear clad, working class scallies who 'pollute the atmosphere' take a good look around your own neighbourhood.

Wayne, Colleen, Dee Catton. Need I say more?
