Mrs A Stoneman, of Bideford, writes:

I got to my old home town the other day and although it is always lovely to get down there I could not help but notice that Teignmouth seems to be slowly dying regarding tourism.

So I had a think. There is a band called Muse, staunch supporters of Teignmouth as that is where the band was born and bred.

So why is there no mention anywhere of Muse? I can understand that the town councillors are not too keen on hoards of teenage fans descending on Teignmouth but in the main Muse fans are responsible people and the music appeals to all ages.

So come on, Teignmouth, support your boys and be proud of them. They have lauded the town throughout the world.

Isn't it about time you recognised the fact that they put Teignmouth on the map and gave them a nod of encouragement?

Tourism may soar. Just try it.MORE LETTERS IN OUR DIGITAL EDITION
