    Is there a Bird of Prey next on the tall building on South Walls?

    There was a huge nesting box for Peregrines installed on the roof of the Civic Centre about ten years ago, I never heard if anyone took up residence though. There was also a large plastic model of a European Eagle Owl on one of the end stairwell towers too, but even the sparrows used to perch...

    Where will I find pools, lakes, river banks or other waters around Stafford where there is no charge for access or fishing them? If you know of any would you please post details here, thank you. Yes I know it is probably a long shot, but I have a maggot left from a session on Friday and would...

    Wanted: Roofer

    I've been getting door knocking travelling workmen offering to supply and fit dry verge edging to the gable ends on my house. Not one of them has a website or a verifiable source of recommendation, but it has made me aware of another job that needs doing. Do we have a recommended roofer or dry...

    Talk to me about fitness classes !

    For my recommendation I'd make it Gym & Tonic on the Newport Road. Proper kit, proper instructors and proper training schedules tailored to the needs of the individual, just as it should be. Should it be of interest to you there is a separate "Ladies only" section too. I joined on their...

    Give us a joke... go on it might be funny :)

    A frog goes into a bank and approaches the cashier and he can see from her name badge, that her name is Patricia Whack. "Miss Whack", he says. "I'd like to get a £30,000 loan, so I can buy a new pond" Pattie looks at the frog in disbelief and asks him his name? The frog says his name is...

    Stafford Traffic.

    I doubt they'll do it, but removing the speed humps along Corporation St will reduce the amount of wear which has definitely been increased by making vehicles adhere to a smaller area of the available width.

    Examples of poor driving you have witnessed!

    In most cases, there is plenty of room for a CAREFUL AND CONSIDERATE overtake of a cyclist without the need to cross the white line leaving adequate room for oncoming traffic, both parties need to be aware of each other of course. We seem to have adopted a rule while unwritten which says a...

    Examples of poor driving you have witnessed!

    The sooner we all get to live together and share the road, paying due respect to the needs and limitations of each road user the better. It will never happen of course. We have kids who think they are immune from damage when they saunter in a pack down the middle of a road while there is a...

    Stafford Dog Boarding kennels

    I share your concern on that kyoto and that is yet another reason why i use Chetwynd firs. They have a "play area" where the dogs can get an extra half hour play off lead every day. If you check out their Facebook page you will see they post pictures of the dogs at play.

    Terrorist attack in london

    I cannot accept that as anything more than an aside remark tek, I have as much or as little faith in our Government as the next chap, but we simply cannot continue to throw our hands up in horror as these attacks continue. No amount of tears, outpourings of love and flowers will make a scrap of...

    Terrorist attack in london

    Why stop there? when deportation is actioned, include any and all of their family members and strip them of their assetts in the process. Regarding those identified as "a threat" lock them away in solitary isolation, no visits, no mail, no internet, no phone so they cannot spread their poison...
