Last night Glenn Morris mentioned on Stafford Radio that there used to be a cafe in town called The Golden Egg and was trying find out where it was, or if he'd imagined it. This prompted me to make some enquiries with neighbours and family today. It seems that some people sort of recall it, but...

It seems the Stafford Grand Prix has started a bit earlier tonight. Fools* in saxos, corsas etc with huge exhausts leaving Mcdonalds on Eccleshall road, heading for J14 then 'Giving it the beans' up the link road, round the roundabout by the Shire Horse, and back the way they've just come...

All seems to have gone quiet since the contractors accidentally felled a couple of hundred trees by mistake. Is work progressing on the site, anyone know what's going on over there?

Does anyone else find this guy to be an incredibly irritating little oik? With his effected speech and his predictable stupidity... I never used to object to him but now have great difficulty watching Top Gear without fast forwarding through all the bits featuring him and his inane drivel...

Last night I was drawing my curtains at about 12.30 and I noticed a car parked a few doors along the street with its engine running. I didn't think it was particularly odd until one of the occupants of the said vehicle jumped out, helped himself to some solar lights out of a neighbours garden...

I'd heard that we were all in line for slightly increased premiums on our car insurance this year because of the rising number of fraudulent claims etc, but I had my renewal from Tesco this week and it's gone up by over £130! Bit steep I thought, anyone else experienced this recently? There...

I notice there's more activity on the Primepoint site, a lot of excavations down at the bottom end nearest junction 14. Anyone know what's going on there? Are we in line for another new car dealership or something more exciting this time?

I see that the garage on the Stone Road is to be turned into yet another hand car wash - I'm glad it's being used for something as it's becoming something of an eyesore but I'm not sure we need another car washing operation.

Does anyone else agree that £3.28 is rather a lot to pay for a large coke (or maybe pepsi, I'm not sure) in The Swan - or is it just me being a tight-arse? I mean, how much coke could you get at ASDA for £3.28, admittedly though you don't get ice & a glass there? Admin edit: Added to thread...

Hi all, Anyone know anything about the appearance of a rover which looks to have been rallying on the green behind Barlaston close. It seems to be well stuck in the mud. The police showed up last night and carted someone off from the car after a bit of excitement but nobody seems to know what...

Does anyone know what's happening with the Broad Eye Windmill? There seemed to be some interest in restoring it some time ago but all seems to have gone quiet. I think there was some preservation group set up but haven't been able to find out much on the intaweb!

I was driving into town on Saturday morning, just leaving Gaol Square onto Chell Road when a taxi came alon side me and tried to edge in. The lane markings are crazy as there's 2 lanes merging into 1 (by the service yard of the old Sheridan Centre). Now if someone's from out of town and isn't...

Is anyone else irritated by pubs and restaurants serving a dish of meat and gravy with a bit of pastry on top and calling it a pie? I thought pies had bottoms and sides in them? Is there anything in the trades description act about this... can we find Stafford's best pies. They're not at the...
