CONGRATULATIONS to James Arkell, who has been unveiled as Wiltshire's new High Sheriff the Queen's representative in the county for law and order.

Mr Arkell is already known to many as the managing director of Arkell's brewery in Swindon.

We are sure he will be perfect for the job. Arkell's beers have long been great ambassadors for Swindon, and we are sure Mr Arkell will do just as admirable job for the county as a whole.
