I had to smile over R W Tucker’s assertion that Woodstock residents, who object to 1,500 new houses that would swamp services and cause congestion, are Nimbys, on September 24.

He himself has no objection to these proposed dwellings in Woodstock. Why? because he lives in Kidlington, he is a NIMBY, not in his back yard. A typical hypocrite.
