Letter: Nowhere to roam

Sir: Christopher Luke complains, understandably, about the nuisance he endures because of the footpath which passes through his property. It is easy to sympathise with him and his family, as one also will with people who live near a motorway, railway or airport.

He has one sure recourse: sell up and move to a place which has none of these nuisances. Of course property near motorways, airports, railways or footpaths is discounted, so he will have to find a little extra cash (which he appears not to be short of).
