I WASN’T able to go shopping because there wasn’t enough grit to clear the paths of the snow.
So I was shocked to see Newcastle United had a heap of grit beside their pitch.
Being a woman, I feel the footballers would be honoured more had they gone to spread it where it was most required, such as where disabled or elderly people live.
