We live in Parkstone and our road is a rat run in more ways than one – we have an awful problem with dog mess.

Please, Mr Council Man could you get one of your cleaning lorries and clean Victoria Road?

I speak on behalf of our friends and neighbours about this issue.

Children have to walk down our road to school. It is very unpleasant as they sometimes have to have dog mess on their shoes all day.

I don’t think this is too much to ask. As an older parent I still remember the smell on my children’s clothes on their return home. Not nice, is it?
