- In an opinion piece earlier this week, our writer gave a review of the Chinese restaurant and readers contributed their thoughts on the take-out joint on Facebook as well.
- We found out this week that all Borders bookstores in the United States will be closing their doors come September. This includes the Marlborough location, and readers had plenty to say about it both on and on our Facebook page.
- One reader was our eyes on the street Tuesday evening when they reported an accident on our Facebook page. Turns out, it was just National Grid replacing some faulty wires.
Social Media Page of the Week
The Dru-Mais Hair salon on Springhill Ave. is one of the newest spa facilities in Marlborough, and probably one of the best looking. Come back to Patch next week and see our photo package of the facilities. You won't be disappointed.
