peteParticipantMost of the staff at Tesco Cefn wear masks. There seem to be a hardcore few who have masks but choose to wear them round their chin or only put them on when they see customers coming (I have mentioned it to them but nothing has changed).
Is it compulsory though for shop staff to wear masks? Initially it wasn’t, and I assumed the big shops were asking staff to wear masks to encourage shoppers to do the same (setting a good example) and to make the customers happier.
peteParticipantAnd maybe a third of the people I see out in shops have their masks over their mouth but not their nose. Most people do the majority of their breathing through their nose.
peteParticipantIt’s all very well these politicians apparently tasked with running the countries from Westminster and Cardiff coming to town for photo opportunities, but what are they actually going to do for the town in terms of tangible substance?
I asked action man Ken back in the New Year why he was promising more and more train services for North Wales while at the same time cutting services between Chester and Shrewsbury. Still waiting for an answer.
Elections must be coming up soon though?
peteParticipantWCBC have had £167K for footpaths & cycleways. I hope that they give cyclists separate tracks fit for purpose without taking up road & pavement space.
In Rhostyllen they used the money to get rid of the part of cycle lanes, and make another part of what’s left even narrower than it was before.
Have we missed an opportunity to access money to improve roads that regularly flood after a heavy shower?
I think there’s a separate pot of money available for that (mentioned in the Twitter debate?). Don’t hold your breath though, the work they’ve done previously hasn’t made much difference.

Its not really my cup of tea but I would’ve thought there’s still some e-sports going on that they could show?

I think they’ll let you stay on to Chirk/Wrexham and double back.They probably missed out because WAG reduced the service at the station in the December timetable change. There seem to be fewer people using it in the mornings as well since WCBC started charging for parking – although the official figures suggest otherwise.

There will be some hirendoouz accidents if the weather starts to freeze – there are so many puddles, floods that those walking will end up with broken bones and those in cars bumbs all over.
Wait for massive claims against the Council… who will pay — this of us who are ratepayers..Exactly. They would rather pay for claims than clear the drains. Which would be the cheaper option?[/quote]
Councils tend to deny all knowledge of the problem (“you reported it? we can’t find any record of that”) and the Highways Act says if they don’t know they’re not liable.
peteParticipantI thought it was odd that WAG rejected LDP1 because there weren’t enough houses in in and it seems that WCBC have submitted a plan with fewer houses in it.
The old, expired LDP included infrastructure improvements on the plans, with land set aside in some places but this was removed from LDP2 and replaced with wooly statements with no specific targets (“developers will contribute some money towards improvements” or similar).
Without an agreed plan in place, it gives developers more clout in appeals against planning being refused. I don’t know how long WCBC can keep claiming that the expired LDP is still valid when it’s so old, yet when they want to go against it they said it’s out of date and no longer applies.
peteParticipantWe had the same thing – the buses bypass the village because the main road is blocked with parked cars and they can’t get through.
WCBC won’t come and ticket the cars.December 8, 2019 at 4:36 pm in reply to: The 'abandoned' estate where 'mums are living off energy drinks !! #177871
peteParticipantUnfortunately “person gets a job and does OK in life” doesn’t sell papers or get clicks.
