Oh dear - generator the size of a small camper van located on forecourt nearby.

Ah well ,no doubt some tale of trouble and worse , neccesitating it's existence.

Looks like it's ear plugs for me and gratitude that I'm not living in the house it's supplying.

Are we sure it's a generator? Or a giant bee?

I was informed by the bloke down the pub, who reckoned that his mate's brother-in-law had it on the best possible authority that Kraftwerk had bought a rehearsal space on BR and were practicing for their forthcoming 'Droning On And On' tour.

I for one believe him.

For the the life of me, I can't see why Kraftwerk would be working on a plumbing job. It makes no sense.

Tarmacing on the other hand, I can see that. They'd have some fun with it. Triple fun if necessary.

They strike me as being half-decent sparks as well.

Though I'd not give 'em a half day as chippies.

    • A quick update - my InPost parcels are being accepted sporadically at Barry's, but only one at a time and every few days, after many refusals - one was refused SEVEN times over about ten days - and several phone calls. As a comparison, I had a message from Yodel that a parcel that was going to Barry's is being delivered to another nearby store, which is interesting...
    • The "Community Benefits" are documented on P12-16 of the Consultation Document. Basically unsubstantiated estimates that it benefits local businesses, claims that it provides "opportunities" for local food traders, businesses & people (the term "opportunities" being meaningless - I have opportunities to win the lottery) without any details, facts or figures, and discounted tickets for local residents (which unsurprisingly seldom sell out). The only direct financial benefit to the Park is a £1000 "Biodiversity Fund" and an undisclosed amount for an "Environmental Impact Fee" - looking at how it was spent this year (flower beds in the playground & Sexby garden) I suspect it would be a similarly small figure. The actual site hire fee - claimed as "commercially sensitive" and therefore undisclosed - is spent on: • Funding the council’s free events programme and Cultural Celebrations Fund • Subsidised fees for community events in the borough • Off-setting the running costs of the Events service, which supports the delivery of the free community events programme  Again, no details given, just vague concepts - can anyone name any of these free & subsidised community events? Or what the "Cultural Celebrations Fund" is or does? It doesn't really sound like any of it is worth  the disturbance, restrictions, noise, litter, environmental damage and negative impact on wildlife in our Park.  
    • The organisers must have spent a fortune on the display..imagine how p**s*d off they must have been!!!! Blink and you missed it kind of thing
    • We also recommend Aaron.  Very reliable, reasonably priced and did a fantastic job on our hallway and bedroom ceiling.  A pleasure to work with and left the house very tidy at the end of the job.  Thank you
