Completely agree Sue. The news has cast them as trouble makers, but really the fight for Climate Change and awareness is essential now more than ever and its a movement to support. People are content to ignore it as they don't see their worn small world impacted.

Champagne has relatively low calories compared to wine. I think calories consumed is the wrong measure as it's not the right focus. You can count your calories as much as you want but you also need to think about what you are actually eating and the impact on your body. Sugar is a real problem. It has some many serious health risks (diabetes, weight, teeth etc), but is quite normalised. Look at the sugar content in the breakfast cereals you give your kids. And as Spartacus says carbs, fat and salt are also things you should watch.

Most people just like to moan but you are correct - the only way to address issues is to be actively involved in local groups, local councils and so on.

seems all organised. I'd rather a peaceful camp than a hoard of drunk festivals goers.

It would be good if they had to show sugar content.

I think it would be great with a market and some new bars - the more people are enticed to an area, the better it is for local businesses. We have to keep the chicken shops though.

It?s ok to cut brambles right down and also at the start of Spring, although it doesn?t appear this has been done with any understanding. Do we know who did it?

We have one and our next road does as well. I like Queen Elizabeth, not that I care for anyone else?s in her family though. I?ll be making cakes and food and talking to people I live near but rarely see. Sounds perfect.

I had builders travel down and sleep over so they could start early and finish late. They were amazing. Did so much in a few days. Obvs stayed in an hotel.

And it depends then on your usage which is variable, rather than high fixed daily charges

google it "list of energy suppliers without standing charge"

if you can find an energy supplier without standing charges you might do well. depends on the usage rates as well..

a small bean or lentil? that's interesting - clearly missing from cartoons and the film industry who both usually use a big drawing pin under the wheel.

"horrifying" Hardly.

He left already

good point.

I think there is neighbourly bitterness - those whose roads are not closed due to the LTN appear to want those who do have their roads pedestrianised to suffer in some form, be it the annoyance of a market outside your home on a Saturday. am I wrong? This doesn't mean I retract my support for the market - I actually think it's a great idea to bring life to the area around the station and the businesses there.

We do when we have school events to cater for and also buy farm boxes (organic meat) which we organise with our neighbours

It will attract people to the area, it?s right by the station and will be good for other local businesses.

What recent incident?

Farm shops also deliver direct and cut out the middle man. I doubt we are the only family who prefer to spend our money on other things than hiked prices.

Healthy consumer attitude

The news is that you can go yourself and get it cheaper

Sorry, it's called New Covent Garden Market. It's in Vauxhall. https://www.newcoventgardenmarket.com/visit It's not just for traders but it's a lot cheaper as you have to buy boxes - you can just buy one box - we often go. Most of the shops buy there and sell it on - it's very profitable. Don't be put off when it says just traders. They obviously prefer to shift in van loads but are happy to sell to the public too.
