Eddie Harwood complains about a clean up in Lewes Road (December 28) and I agree with him, but perhaps he himself could make a start.

Mr Harwood has three shops, each one using up more than half the pavement with wares, plus a double advertising board.

It's time Brighton and Hove Council banned wares on pavements if they are hazardous to pedestrians like wheelchair owners, the blind and mothers with prams.
