Sir – I do agree with the correspondents who find central Oxford far too crowded at present. We have surely never had so many young language students as we have this year. Colleges and schools with accommodation seem to have crammed as many in as possible, presumably to get more money, without any thought for those of us who live here.
I too have had to negotiate Cornmarket to get from one bus to another, and it is a nightmare.
Furthermore, many of these students eat their sandwiches in Bonn Square, feeding the pigeons at the same time, with the resulting mess underfoot.
This city is my home, but if it were not for my friends I would move away.
