    Would anyone like a laying hen?

    Surely the hen to whom you refer is "she" and not "it"? Hens are individuals and not objects are they not...? I would urge anyone who does provide the hen in question with a home to just look after her and not steal her eggs. http://gentleworld.org/a-chickens-relationship-with-her-eggs/

    Stafford Traffic.

    The problem at Stafford station is that people are too thick to go in the car park using 20 mins free and would rather gridlock the forecourt. The same dullards also get really flappy when you correctly exit to Station Road to turn right out of the station - because they are trying to drive in...

    Would you vote for a party who say they will raise income tax to fund NHS?

    Perhaps better get the ketchup ready for a hat based dinner then...... The NHS has to spend an insane amount of cash that does nothing for patients because of things like PFI built and operated hospitals at many times the cost of had they been publically financed and built. Or what about the...

    National Grid situation looking interesting... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-29794632 I guess the Didcot power station conflagration hasn't helped.

    Another tree gone!

    Another tree gone!

    A load of trees on Westway appear to have been completely butchered with chain saws. They look a very sorry sight and obviously won't grow back.

    Calling all vegans

    It was a successful day - more than 2000 people through the door. Well worth a visit. Some seriously fantastic food there, lots of other stalls, all in all an excellent demonstration that there's no reason not to go vegan.

    Power cut in the ST17 area

    Ours went three times last night. First time round tea had gone in the oven 30 seconds before it went. Pizza Hut profited out of that one as we were mega hungry. According to Western Power website 5000 properties were knocked out in the power cut last night.
