Hope my warning helped people - saw the chaos at about 8.15 this morning, including people who obviously didn't know the bus stop was going to be closed (luckily as the bus was stuck in traffic, the bus driver let them on even though the stop was closed). Thought my phone was going to die before I finished posting!

> 30" gas mains leaking gas - emergency repairs.

When I passed - excruciatingly slowly - on a bus last night, there were four guys in yellow jackets just standing around staring at the repair site ... with traffic jammed in both directions apparently due (in the direction heading up to the library) to a police car parked outside The Bishop at a crucial point .....

SGN have worked through the night - sorry to those living close by but better that than a gas explosion!

They pin-pointed the leak and are repaired the joint this morning. Reinstatement is underway with quick drying concrete (its not as long lasting but should last a number of years) and should be completed by lunch time Friday.

So circa 20 hours left before its fully reopened.

    • However, some would particularly like to avoid reviews of the 'there are far too many mice'; 'the cakes are deteriorating badly' nature. If you consider that a 'Negative Nelly' response. My experience was that the hot drinks and the varieties of e.g. teas on offer, were generally a positive element. As were the staff serving. 
    • The hare krishna restaurant is called Govindas and still going strong in Soho Street, a different establishment to the one that used to be (still is?) in Hanway Street. I must go back to Govindas some time
    • Its that time of year again, past Christmas day and late delayed cards are turning up. How late are your cards arriving ?  Last year I had one delivered 4 weeks late. Can that be beaten this year ? 
    • Sadly, a lot of businesses didn't invite reviews on the EDF at that time due to a number of "negative nellies" that would take delight in posting unfavourable comments, often despite never being to the business in question.  No matter how good the place was, some posters would find fault that wasn't there "don't lile the colour of the bidet set in the private bathroom, avocado 😅" Can hardly blame businesses at the time for not wanting reviews on here, thankfully that has mostly changed now.
