Comment on Bus crash: Be advised by John Oates

It was a route 88 bus.

They must have worked all night to fix it as he road was reopened this morning, all relaid and white-lined and smelling of fresh tar.

There’s still the two crunched fences and collapsed garden shed and tyre marks in the soil where the bus went after the road collapsed under it.

Well done to those involved sorting it out so quickly!

it wasn’t a private hire minibus!
it was a public bus that goes threw Mobberley to Knutsford and it didn’t go threw a bush it went threw a fence!

Comment on Disconnected for cash: Copper wire theft by Don Whiteford

Don Whiteford — Tue, 17 May 2011 10:54:41 +0000

Last night at 2.30 am three ‘BT Openreach vans’ pulled up outside my house with a cable drum trailer. They woke me up because of the noise of the engines and doors. When I confronted them they said they were on nights and laying cable. I asked them to stop and leave, removing the van from my driveway entrance. It turns out after enquiries to the Highways Agency that these were not BT at all but a gang about to steal a length of copper cable. They were about to open two manhole covers. Warrington Police refused to attend the incident when I called them, leaving me to deal with the gang on my own. I am not happy with the way this was handled.

Biassed!

I presume you mean biased?

The facts Bertir as I understand them are:

The fact that you lost?
The fact that you only scored 5 tries and we scored 6?
The fact that both teams only managed to one conversions out of eleven tries

All of the above are included in the match report, which one would you like me to correct?

Did the big words in there confuse you?
