3 men over the last few weeks have targetted a neighbour who gets a little confused re trees cutting down, tiles coming off roof, guttering blocked etc.. Forked out over ?7000 to these guys in cash - only discovered when spouse looked at their joint bank statement. Police notified.


Also heard of this week, vulnerable pensioners being targetted - elderly lady in Dunstans Road area lost a couple of hundred pounds in cash when helpful man offered to put a new light bulb in her room, then helped himself to her cash. Thought to be the same man who got her to sign a cheque and then added a few noughts. Luckilly bank realised it was a forgery and made contact.


Please warn your elderly folk that there are many con men around at the moment

      GALA 2026

      By Blah Blah · Posted

      I went and will post a summary in morning. It was a farce. But the good that came out of it was the start of a physical petition and I will get started on a strategy group for an orgnised opposition to the extention. So watch this space and if anyone is interested in being part of that strategy group, please DM me.

      GALA 2026

      By fishboy · Posted

      A letter, you say - we haven't had one of those (again...).  Has anyone seen any blue notices on the park railings? Or an advert in a 'local paper'? All things that Gala are supposed to be doing as part of their application, according to the consultation document. And will there be any penalties if they don't? 😖 Is there any update from those who attended either the online or physical PR tick box events? Such ridiculous times and location, why not hybrid & local?

      Is Starmer soon to be toast?

      By vladi · Posted

      One month on and Never-Here-Keir is getting ever closer to the toaster. It seems that he goes AWOL at every opportunity. He's done 34 foreign trips to 26 countries since becoming PM.  Surely, with all the in-fighting going on at #10 and with some MPs and one Labour mayor on manoeuvres,  should he not be staying at home and fighting for his premiership and the interests of the Labour party?  or does he reckon he is already doomed and feels better away from it all?

      Plumber recommendation - A.F.E Plumbing Services

      By Pauline_ · Posted

      5stars!   Aria has completed a third job for me today and I’m always so glad to recommend him to anyone looking for a friendly, timely and communicative plumber.    Aria came to look at the job on the day I messaged about it (replacing and repositioning radiators). He advised on different solutions and what I needed to buy.   He then came back today to do the work. He managed to move things around to get it done in the small window I had available. The work was done to a very high standard (Aria will always check for any potential issues several times) and for very good value.  He’s also just a really nice friendly guy who I’ll definitely work with again.
