Local thoughts . This morning I experienced the most overwhelming stench of urine at the Town Centre taxi rank. What a stink! Disgusting! . Why do you get less petrol in Mitchell’s Plain when you fill up? Maybe the garages adjust their pumps. They cheat us out of 20 km of petrol at least. Drivers, check your kilometres. Pounds . A reunion is being planned for the Oval North

Eat pork! “Do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink; or with regard to a religious festival...” (Colossians 2:16). John . Seems to me you are just ignorant and in doubt owing to all the different opinions about your Bible. It just shows that it was written by man. Wake up and believe in one God. Shakes Just a thought . I am an unemployed mother of two and I am upset, because these days you are hired by institutions dependant on the way you pay your bills, not by your skills and knowledge. The economy is going to suffer greatly because young productive people are sitting at home. . My husband and I are ardent sport fans and are especially interested in rugby and cricket. We are both retired and we will be looking forward to reading Liam Moses’ sport columns regularly. We also want to wish Liam a happy and long stay with People’s Post. Good luck! Maz . The ANC is set to change names but this won’t change history. It will only take money away from housing projects and the poor.

PROPOSED NAME CHANGES AFFECTING STREETS, PUBLIC PLACES AND COUNCIL OWNED BUILDINGS
Have your say!
In 2007 the City of Cape Town commenced a public process for the naming and renaming of streets, buildings and public places. Proposals were received from the public and were then assessed by a Panel of Experts. After consideration, the Panel of Experts recommended 31 naming proposals be approved and implemented by Council. Council suspended the process for the purposes of further public consultation on the recommendations. In the past few months the City has implemented four name changes. This is your chance to comment on the naming proposals listed in the table below, before a final recommendation is made to Council. PRESENT NAME
