YOU must be congratulated on your timing in announcing one of this century’s best kept secrets regarding the future development of the old Tricorn house site.

At a stroke the planners have solved the shortfall in our housing stock and shopping needs, given a welcome boost to the tourist portfolio and provided an incentive for the GCC to maybe repair the roads in a more permanent manner.
