I AM not quite 65 yet, but I have listened to Solent for years, and I was furious and appalled at what I read in Tuesday's Echo. I thought that having a local station was for listeners of all ages to be able to participate. Surely, this sort of programme is for the older person to enjoy. How many women and men under 50 are at home during the day to listen?
