I JUST wanted to thank the snow plough people for their prompt action during the recent snow.

I live in Greenridges in Headington and as soon as we have a fall of snow, the whole area becomes housebound.

Unless you have a 4x4 it can be very difficult getting out from here, as we have a couple of hills and corners to negotiate to reach the main road.

A couple of weeks ago, when we had the first fall of snow on the Saturday evening, we were absolutely amazed and positively thankful on the Sunday morning to see the snow plough arrive.

It actually came right up to my front door!

Then after the next fall of snow, yes, there it was again.

I cannot begin to thank them enough for their prompt action and I’m sure everybody who lives in Greenridges is as thankful as we all are here in the part where I live. Thank you snow plough workers.
