IN response to J Atkinson's letter, ('Just move away', March 17), while he or she chose to live near the racecourse I certainly did not.

I had no choice about where I was born and raised.

As for the suggestion that I move, if J Atkinson, or anyone else for that matter, is willing to pay all the expenses incurred to enable me to live in a place of my choice I shall happily move, preferably before June 14. Not to another planet, just to Hawaii. Any offers?
