I, TOO have been shocked by rats in the park in North Street (Letters, September 4).
I saw the dead rat Mr Green mentioned and asked a street cleaner to clear it away, which he did without question, and informed me he had just picked up another one.
My friend and I used to take our lunch into the park. We have witnessed families with small children sitting on the grass having a picnic.
They would not have done that if they had seen the rats running around, in the daytime, as I have.
The place is a disgrace. Even the rough- sleepers seem to have deserted the park.
