WITH reference to G R Jones's letter Thursday, August 17. Tunnel vision is a medical condition that, left untreated, can lead to blindness.

So in my opinion, it is not a word to be treated lightly.

Regarding his disparaging remarks about "animal welfare campaigners," it is a good job that there are such people around, otherwise innocent animals from all species would be subject to all sorts of cruelty with out check or care being taken of them.

I see he/she cannot avoid having a dig at vegans and vegetarians. It isn't everyone who fancies lumps of dead flesh, (sometimes infected) on their dinner plates.

Vegans and vegetarians are not people from an other planet, just folk who feel differently from you and I.

So don't rubbish your fellow beings who have an entirely different outlook to yours.
