They're still trying to build on this land. Got a letter about it and they've even created a website. https://www.landnorthofmilfordroad.co.uk/ I remember seeing the plans for the old Police HQ and that looked like it had a lot more green spaces for people to enjoy. So I don't expect the...

All been done today. Some people really must love giving people stone chips in their windscreens given how fast they've been driving on the dressed roads.

Thanks. They seem to be doing one of the next roads. Doing one side of the road at a time. So should be good. I'm off up the chase for the greyhound walk tomorrow, so should miss them initially. But as she's seeing the vet under the emergency service they tend to call me when they're heading in...

You mean my personal one?

She's been tested for so many things and it's all been negative. So why the leish keeps coming back I dunno. She's been a lot calmer with the injections this time, which is a good thing.

If they're doing your entire estate, what are you supposed to do when you need to exit your driveway and actually go somewhere? Says the roads will be closed for 1-2 days. I have to visit the vets every day right now and it's a long walk.

Pretty sure motorcycles of any description are banned over the chase are they not? Saw a couple of berks riding them earlier this week in the Oldacre Valley region. Young enough to actually pedal a normal mountain bike but clearly too lazy. These were not electric mountain bikes, they had no...

Not posted in a while. Ginny relapsed again. This time she's having the course of injections of glucantime she had in 2023 which worked the best for her. 5 injections done out of 28 and I'm already seeing improvements. She's got some skin problems again, an ear wound which doesn't seem to want...

1 in 4 pounds of your council tax is spent on rather generous council pensions. Then you wonder why nothing gets done.

Flooding in Stafford will only get worse with all the new houses that are going to be built. They're setting a target of 782 new homes.

It's a pretty small store. There's four stores in the area which is a bit excessive. Also, what clever person decided to undertake a major refit of the big co-op store just as there's roadworks making it more difficult to get into town.

Oh she is indeed. Such a character. I'd definitely get another galgo, although they do often take a lot of time to recover from their ordeals in Spain. I lucked out with Ginny, she's very affectionate.

Seen lots of engineers about today. Connection is back online. I bet they've had a lot of needless appointments to peoples homes.

Anyone else had them? Had a couple last week and two today, connection is now down (using my mobile hotspot). Even had my O2 phone connection go down. Are they accidentally damaging cables down Radford Bank? I have a engineer visit booked in, but Thursday. As I use my internet connection for my...

Sorry about that :) She's unfortunately had some fur loss, a symptom of the leishmaniasis.
