I WOULD strongly disagree with MP Peter Luff's statement, 'that we have had a second rate service, since the post office was transferred to our Riverside Co-op store'.

The service from the post office staff has been of the highest. Those protesting about the store closing should be writing to the Co-operative management, the service and goods at the store have been of the highest order, and we would wish to see the store and post office remain open!
