PEOPLE are quick enough to criticise unfriendly and unhelpful staff in large stores.

But I would like to thank the Customer Service and Welcome staff who were on duty at the Asda store on Middlebrook Plaza, Horwich, on Monday night, November 5, who were so kind and helpful when the bridge on my glasses snapped and they managed to "stick" them together. Their assistance enabled me to drive the 13 miles home safely.

Again, my many thanks and appreciation for all their kindness, showing that there are still people willing to be kind, willing and courteous in today's society.

Mrs J Kirkham, Whitefield
