Just finished Kakuro No. 4 from the allegedly "Quick to Solve' "Logic Puzzles". Been trying to solve this for at least 5 hours, but the solution came from writing the final missing piece on the pub darts blackboard. Yippee, and a celebration pint.

Replying to @Official_NCFC
@Official_NCFC tried to buy Shrewsbury Away tickets today, but screen froze when we pressed the add to basket & proceed to checkout tab. I/my son tried it. Called shop/ticket office recommended on website but were closed. Called the Club, got answer, but no help. What do we do?

Conservatives amendment at Oak House County Hall to keep Broxtowe out of the City. Let's see if Reform accept it and replace their recommendation to have 2 District's (including Broxtowe) be merged into the City.

1/Yesterday, @reformparty_uk published a graphic claiming that the average 5-year council tax increase across @Conservatives-led councils that are up for May'25 re-election was 23.5%. That is a lie. It's 17%, or 3% lower than England average. Let me show you the workout 👇
23.5%. That’s the average increase in council tax across Tory-controlled councils up for election on May 1st over the last five years. The Conservatives claim they are the party of low taxes, but the evidence says otherwise. Promises made, promises broken. Britain needs Reform.

After a number of years trying, and after being told it was not possible, The County Council is formally consulting with local residents about plans to improve road safety and bus stops at the Meadow Lane end of Long Lane. This includes bus stop markings and double yellow lines.

Regarding the Emergency Roadworks on the newly resurfaced Hall Drive, I have asked Highways (Via) to make absolutely sure that the road surface is returned to its new condition by The National Grid following the repair of the LV Cable.

Good news, more drain gully (inside the drains) cleaning planned in my County Council division. Hope Broxtowe Council will do their job and sweep the road surfaces very soon.

Great news. After campaigning for more investment in resurfacing and pothole repairs, it is now the turn of Hall Drive.

I voted today to pass a motion to ask the Govt to reverse their cut of Winter Fuel Payments. Labour Cllrs (including 2 newly elected MP's) voted against. Never in my life would I think Labour would do such a callous thing.
