course you are! I just wanted to check.. always good to have more forumites come along


I think I might be relatively sober (to begin with anyway) - everyone else appears to be at an afternoon works do in one place or another... so come 8pm they will be LARGE


umm off topic now - well done again Amanda - I shall buy you a drink for sure (and see you later as well Lizzy)

Riverside councillor elected in by-election


Anood Al-Samerai was elected last night (13 December) as a councillor for the Riverside ward.


The results were


Anood Al-Samerai - Liberal Democrat 1,114

Cormac Hollingsworth - Labour 691

Rahoul Bhansali - Conservative 260

Amanda Penfold - Green 122

Fernando Grace - UKIP 49



Ballot papers counted: 2,248 (12 rejected)


Yesterday's by-election was prompted by the resignation of Paul Baichoo (Liberal Democrat). The turnout was a very respectable 24.7 per cent - higher than expected for a December single-seat by-election

    • There's not enough people talking about this - I've often worried about it too  One busy staff's mistakes will not make my pockets lighter, thank you very much. Thanks Sue and all the best for the new year. 
    • I don't want to name a shop, but I have twice at this busy time of year had an issue, and yesterday was overcharged when buying a number of small things. If you are using a shop which doesn't give an itemised receipt, or doesn't give a receipt at all, just be aware that it might be a good idea to check that you are not paying over the odds (and if using cash, that you are given the right change for what you handed over). When staff are busy they might make mistakes.
    • As I had a moan on here about the truly abysmal Christmas meal we had at The Cherry Tree last year, I am redressing the balance by saying we had a really excellent Christmas meal at Franklins last night. Every course was absolutely delicious and  really well cooked. The staff were lovely despite being exhausted and run off their feet. In particular, my sea bass was a large portion and cooked to perfection, in stark contrast to the small dried up portion The Cherry Tree provided, from which I was barely able to scrape a teaspoonful of flesh (that is not an exaggeration). And our Franklins meal cost less than half what we paid at The Cherry Tree (to be fair, that was on Christmas Day so the Cherry Tree costs would have been higher, but that doesn't excuse the appalling quality meal). Thank you again to Franklins for restoring our faith in eating out at Christmas!
