** STOP PRESS ** COUNCIL CLEAN UP GARAGES! **

I have just noticed that I have a couple of emails sent to the Blagdenslanewatch@hotmail.com address referring to an interesting turn of events recently. Unfortunately that particular email account has tumbleweed blowing around inside it so I have been guilty of only peaking into it on an adhoc basis, so saying "recently" is stretching the point a little bit. Still, now that volume has increased by 200% its back to a daily refresh once again!

Anyway, I digress. On Friday 26th a council team turned up and cleared the rubbish, returning on Saturday 27th to board up the garages once again.

Have the council been reading our website? Has Terry Smith been banging a few heads together? Have they finally got tired of denying responsibility to all the complainents from our street? Was the trashed Telewest van an embarrassment too far? Who knows, the council works in mysterious ways, but let us be thankful that we have had action at last.

Now all we need is for the fabled community police teams to include the area on their beat. A free pint for the first person to spot one.
