What did you actually ask them? Did you say "ashtrays, cigarette papers, lighters and tobacco grinders" or did you say "drug using equipment"? Have they seen these things themselves? They haven't objected up to now though have they? You said they haven't been in the shop so as far as I can tell they only find something unacceptable that they have been told about not something they have seen first hand. Or at least not objected to the relevant person - ie the shop owner. My comments to him yesterday were the first he was aware that anyone didn't like any of his stock being displayed. Please let him know. Tell THEM that you have asked parents at your school and what they have said.

I, for one parent, do not want one less place to buy uniforms Cashy. I prefer to buy them from this shop than from the school. I sincerely hope the shop doesn't go out of business over this.

I'm seriously thinking of asking the council myself - if I had any idea who to speak to.
