IT was good to hear reports of how well the police dealt with the derby game between Swindon and Oxford recently.
It makes a change from the usual knocking our boys in blue appear to receive. It cannot be easy to be in the police force in this current climate they deserve our respect and support. Well done to them all.
My other nomination for a vote of thanks goes to the Swindon Borough Council, another body that we only tend to hear bad reports about. I would like to say thank you to the council for their swift and tidy response to my recent letter pointing out some possible dangers near where we live.
All three matters were dealt with very quickly and efficiently. Perhaps the lesson here is to write rather than telephone.
