Background

I want the government to see how much Eyemouth is a very popular holiday town and only having one shop that has control of the only cash machine in all of Eyemouth that never has cash in it! I know we have tried to get another food shop however coop put a stop to it which is very unfair on families like myself and other especially the older residents!
