I've got a few things to moan about. The first being, following a mid morning stroll along the lane to Barclays I noted three cashpoints all out of use. This is frustrating, as these machines are rarely if ever in service when I need to use them. That's the first gripe, the second concerns charity shops. I've noticed that on LL a certain shops has bags of goodies collecting up outside most evenings and it's beginning to look unsightly. I appreciate these places are bastions for good causes, but it wouldn't hurt for people to leave the goods with the helpers inside during shop open hours rather than in bags outside for foxes and opportunistic people to ravage open and litter our pavements.


If I can think of anything else I'll get back to you.

With you 100% on this foxy. It most certaintly isn't irrational, it's opportunism in its most abhorrent form, stealing from a charity. I've confronted a few people but it's fairly rare I actually catch them. They must head out in the early hours to engage in this activity? The mess left behind would be enough to turn a visitor away from the area.

Yes this. Some of them don't even tell you they're not working, just swallow your card make 'thinking' noises, and then spit your card out again with no cash.

    • Hello - If anybody has any hifi valve amplifiers, working or in need of restoration, I'm keen to buy such things from you! I particularly like amps from the 50s and 60s, the sort of thing you used to find in old sideboards, but ultimately anything with glass tubes sticking out of them is of interest to me. I am also in the market for good quality hifi items in general, particularly faulty items in need of fixing and restoration. This includes turntables, amplifiers, cd players, speakers, graphic EQs, cassette players, reel to reel players, etc. etc. Ultimately, all electronic musical objects are of intrigue to me. Many thanks, and hope to hear from you soon, -Scott 07956 853 538  
    • Using the smart CCTV cameras is your best strategy - particularly if they have adequate infra-red capability. Setting them to be triggered by line crossing or areas of intrusion is worthwhile setting up as is linking them to a PIR sensor. The PIR could also be used to activate a sounder but that might upset your other neighbours. I have a few cameras around our property and I enjoy reviewing the recordings and apart from foxes and birds, I catch the occasional opportunistic thief on camera - like this one last Tuesday. If you need any help, please drop me a PM. S7.mp4
    • Not in Ed, but I was in NE England over the weekend and saw an otter in the wild! Never seen one before, it was quite lovely.
    • Well unless the heron got them later, there were the  two cootlets. I think some others of this year's babies must have escaped the heron. Many years ago (and possibly still, though I never see them any more) there was a whole heron family on the island  - mum, dad and youngster. I don't know how long herons live. Maybe this one is the grown up youngster.
