Aww, love it! I’m in Kent and we LOVE Kent Gritters. DD works rurally doing stockman duties for various livestock/hoof stock all over Kent (we like to say she’s OutStanding in her field, lol 😂) and really, REALLY appreciates their hard work and often sends me Gritting related info - she’s a bit obsessed. We have competitions for school children to name the new Gritters here, do you have that?

As much as I love them, I imagine they don’t have to work quite as hard here as your Scottish gritters do though. 😊
