Re: The Ware Road ditch
There I was walking along the Ware Road Ditch and I heard movement from below. I looked down and there was a lifeless figure. He was a large lad with a crumpled suit and a mop of blowaway blond hair. As I got nearer he suddenly expired. The poor chap could hardly mutter his final words but I caught ...

Re: Is anything happening?
My Swansong - see local news on main page. I'm not so sure if admin allows this but at least it answers your question.

Re: "Hertford & Ware" Mercury
To add to what Steve has already written; another one bites the dust. http://www.bedfordtoday.co.uk/news/bedford-s-second-oldest-newspaper-to-cease-publication-1-8131054 This is happening all over the place. In the old days giant multiples would keep a store open despite it failing as it felt it had...

Re: "Hertford & Ware" Mercury
Read all about it!! Today's scoop - Aldi submit planing application. And they still cannot accurately quote from and comment on the full list of documents which Steve and myself have discussed at length elsewhere.
Re: Aldi
Steve, I was just trying to paraphrase Planning Policy's arguments. Their document references the National Planing Policy Framework and District Plan and other research done by outside agencies which I think is what their role is in this. By 2019 with more residents I do think that we will need anot...
Re: Aldi
Not going too well for Aldi on the basis of this guidance from Planing policy desk https://publicaccess.eastherts.gov.uk/online-applications/files/67F58DDE3A87B386F8E8AF332B0F9CE9/pdf/3_17_1537_FUL-PLANNING_POLICY_-_27.07.17-1140681.pdf As I see it there are two or three problems. This area is desig...

Re: Secret Tunnels. ??
The articles Joe quotes are from the Mercury of 8 October 2004 and the Insider is the on-line magazine published by Ben and Tim Acheson who 'broke' the story about underground tunnels to Raymond Brown in the first place. The whole thing was based upon the existence of a subterranean passage from Bay...

Re: A Black Hole is forming
I've not seen any planning notices but the general view is that the Post Office will become flats - sorry, apartments. Speaking of planning and such things. There was a sheaf of papers from the Planning Department pinned to the hoarding of Ashleys. I read it last Wednesday and it said something alon...

Re: A Black Hole is forming
Yes, Four Seasons operates from Bob Ash's old Pet Food store. I believe you are thinking of the Decorated Room. I believe husband took a job overseas and wife followed - as they do! I think that the lady that runs Four Seasons used to work at the Decorated Room. I noticed on my way back from Wicks o...
