Having congratulated Steven Thorpe personally, I would like to say, on behalf of the people of Keighley, thank you to all the gardeners who have made the Town Hall Square and its environs a feast for the eyes. I just hope when the Tour de France comes through Keighley next year the ‘media’ also focuses on a town of bloom not of doom. Pity the run-up to Haworth is not the best in the area, but as they do in Austria, why don’t the powers-that-be offer window boxes along the route in this part of Yorkshire, thus providing a memorable legacy of the Tour for years to come?
