WHAT is the true picture of tourism in Worcester? One minute we are told it's better than ever, the next just the opposite.

Apparently, there is leaflet available from the Tourist Office. In many towns, every shop in the centre seems to have copies.

For instance, Carlisle has machines where, for a pound, you can buy a town guide.

Other towns provide a booklet that can be obtained in shops.
