Editor's comment: Hopefully Redditch is back on track as country unlocks

Redditch Editorial 17th Apr, 2021   0

I HAD my haircut in a pub on Monday morning and then went shopping.

Even as my locks were lopped someone was banging on the pub door asking if they were open for a pint yet.

The Kingfisher was thronged with people – social distancing? maybe two metres was pushing it, but the mood was cheerful, almost holiday-like.

Everyone was smiling, we’ve been through a tough 12 months.




Can the virus be held in check? I like to think the people of Redditch are smart enough, and scarred enough, to not let it get out of control again.
