HAVING read the letter in last week?s Times by Gwyneth Bateman, I would just like to endorse what this lady wrote.

I moved to Tavistock seven years ago from The Wirrall and I have been received with nothing but kindness since I have lived here.

All the shopkeepers, the people, everyone has time for you ? complete strangers greet me with smiles and this goes for the young people too.

Devon has been voted the best county to live in ? I think Tavistock should be voted the best town.
