SIR - We are writing to thank Mick and Angie Carney for all their hard work in arranging such an amazing Christmas Day lunch and entertainment at St Theresa’s Hall, Sidmouth.

Thanks, also, go to the band of willing helpers and also the folk who gave something, so generously, towards it: Hayman’s, Dukes, Ian Winchester etc – too many to mention.

Thanks again. Wishing you all a happy new year.

Vicky Mitchell, Doris Corker, Pip Bealey
