Regarding 'Booze hatch'' bid by York Road Store (Mail, January 8), I think shops are open long enough, enabling us to obtain all the alcohol and groceries that we need.

Why do we need a 24-hour licence to provide these things on one of the busiest roads in Hartlepool?The licence will not benefit anyone, especially people with a drink problem.

Also read: Thanks to the people of HartlepoolThe news (Mail, January 8) about the Civil Engineering Academy hoping to be established in Brenda Road pleased me.

This would be a great asset to the town, unlike the story above.

H Snowdon,

Hartlepool.
