LETTERS: Seeds and cycleways: faith in the future

From Mr Lars Breimer

Sir: The good burgers of Cardiff should take the time to visit Gothenburg in Sweden, because that city has recently opened a stupendous musical theatre in the old port - and they brought the project in under budget, to boot!

Gothenburg is usually associated with football, Volvo cars, SKF ballbearings and Hasselblad cameras, but it is also the musical centre of the Nordic countries. Decade upon decade, its citizens have struggled on with a theatre built in the 1850s. Now they have what Cardiff wants - within budget and on the waterfront.

Yours sincerely,

Lars Breimer
