Sir – I was another casualty of the uneven pavements in Witney last Wednesday, October 2, just outside the 99p Shop.

I tripped and fell over and the first thing that hit the ground was my nose.

Immediately several passers-by stopped to help me, one even going to the library to find my husband.

A police car arrived shortly after, followed by a paramedic and then an ambulance.

I spent the rest of the day in the John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, being checked over. Through this letter I would like to say a big “thank you” to all the folk who helped me, your kindness and help were very much appreciated.
