AS A Westonian I was delighted to read Birnbeck Pier has been sold to a company called Urban Splash. However, I view it all with caution as it has been bought twice before and to no avail.Jason Collard, managing regional director, says it will take six months before pen is put to paper and another two or three years before an acceptable solution can be found.Unfortunately Birnbeck probably hasn't got two or three years, especially if we have severe gales this winter. I hope action will happen sooner rather than later so we may have one of our 'jewels' back.AILSA BRENTAlbert Road, Weston
