Thank goodness someone is doing something about the menace of chewing gum which besmirches our streets (The Argus, December 31).
Recently, I was sitting on a bench on Hove seafront, watching the surf and the gulls battling against the wind. Marvelling at the majesty of nature. Only to be rudely brought back to earth when I got up and tried to leave - to find myself stuck to the bench by gum residue. I had to put my trousers in the freezer and pick off the disgusting material.
I say ban it or at least increase the fines for the anti-social louts who leave this muck on our streets.
