Letters to the Editor From I address myself to that
resident of Oxhill who has questioned the honesty and integrity of Jackie
(the Post) and would suggest that she is anything but 100% honest and
trustworthy. Jackie has grown up and
lived all her life in and around Oxhill. She is always cheerful and ready
to help anyone in any way possible. I find it offensive that
anyone who knows Jackie would question the fact that she enlisted the help
of her family over the busy Christmas period. and can only assume that
this person is a newcomer to our village. Bill Fox Political Correctness or
not ? Like many other residents I
am sure you received your little note from Jackie (our trusted, .friendly,
reliable, cheery, locally employed post lady), describing to us how one of
our neighbours had the good presence to contact her employer and warn them
of a potential security risk associated with her young daughter handling
our precious Christmas cards and junk mail. I am sure that the person(s)
who raised the alarm did so with the very best of intent, undoubtedly
Political Correctness: however, I hope that same person is now delighted
with the results which have been achieved. I will certainly look forward
to trailing all the way to Perhaps we should also
reflect on the bigger picture. The Royal Mail will go through massive
change over the coming years: it continues to lose money and one day will
challenge the justification for free daily deliveries to small villages
like Oxhill. Why can't we wait for the Government to frustrate and
restrict our freedoms and liberties instead of doing it for ourselves ? I would like to thank Jackie
for all her efforts and her cheery smile. I am sure the vast majority of
residents very much appreciate (and trust) Jackie and her family. Paul Roebuck Barnside. |
