Sir – We in Church View, Freeland, often receive mail addressed to Church View Road, Witney, which we return suitably re-addressed.

I recently answered the door to a very attractive young lady who asked if I was the same name on the airmail letter from Australia she was holding as it had been incorrectly delivered to her home.

I confirmed it was and she explained that as it was approaching Mother’s Day, she had driven from Witney to deliver it herself so that I would not be disappointed.

In this day and age, this unselfish and thoughtful behaviour is rare and I wish to pass on my very grateful thanks to that person for this very generous act.

Sylvia Dugard, Freeland
