“It’s always good to get out, be visible, and actually spend time with the community.

“Also been tackling the classic pavement parkers, you know who you are, vehicles on the pavement might save you a few steps, but they make life a nightmare for everyone else.”

He added: “If you see me out and about, feel free to say hello, unless you’re parked on the pavement - then I’ve probably already seen you first!”
