I WOULD like this letter to go into the Times Letters page through my own willingness and to let others know, especially the Housing Association who own the flats on the site of the old Cocktails Bar, in Berry Street, Lochgelly.

It has come to my attention that people have been discarding needles in the stairway and that people who stay there, especially my auntie, who is a hardworking woman who cares for the elderly, has been asked if she had any 'crack for sale'.

I am getting annoyed at this, especially the needles lying on the stairwell, as there are grandkids that go to visit their family.

What is is going to take, one of them to prick themselves before something is done.

I couldn't give a monkey's but what people do with their lives or in their own homes, but stop leaving needles lying about, put them safely in one of the bins for or hand them in to one of the chemists to be to be safely discarded and stop harassing my auntie for drugs which she definitely does not sell.
