Problems Don’t Go Away @ Weekends…..

I could ‘ignore’ until Monday – but what’s the point – it just backs up and if I or you report issues, it will be picked up as soon as those officials are back to work.

Ongoing sewage issues with two businesses on the Market Place…..

A Bee swarm at the Manor Field
A large branch fallen off an Ash Tree on Saxon Road
A large Pot Hole St Mary’s Street….

Nothing major but all needs to be addressed…..

Sustainable Travel Zone (Congestion Charge By Another Name)

They don’t call it a Congestion Charge and use several other names!
4 Hour debate – who watched !,
Has any notice been taken of the number of objections !

All very well for Cambridge, but as with the recent ‘Bus Levy’ put on our rates – we in Whittlesey will see little or no benefit other than having to help pay for it!

  • 58% of respondents opposed the proposed Sustainable Travel Zone (STZ) as the means for delivering the transport vision. Opposition increased with age from 35 to 64 with 55–64-year-olds the most likely to oppose.Those who lived outside of Cambridge were also more likely to oppose.

     

    34% of people support the STZ as proposed – So this ‘Quasi’ Group don’t like the result – they will carry on with the project until they get the result they are looking for – sounds familiar !

Getting There – Nearly Complete

Whittlesey will soon go on the map as having a ‘Supermarket’ – yes we have some what are termed convieient stores… but very soon German Supermarket will have their ‘ALDI’ here on Eastrea Road Whittlesey.
Many on this web-blog are ex Whittlesey residents who live elsewhere including New Zealand and Australia who like to hear what’s happening here…..
Maybe late June…..we will wait just a bit longer.

Lovely – Hot Afternoon On Coates North Green

Some said too Hot….never satisfied, last week too Cold….
Well done again to the organisers of this years Coates Fete On The Green.
Plenty enough people and Pubs doing a roaring trade, I settled more for Tea and Cake in the Church (and it was cooler).
Perhaps not quite as many this year as last, but hey I saw everyone having a good time.

Scam – Do NOT Open Attachments……Unknown Source

Many Councillors today received an e-mail from a Councillor (unknow to us)
One or more Councillors opened up the attachment and found the following message,
standard type scam message – the problem is – did the attachment have any ‘virus’ or ‘malware’ attached and secondly the sendrt knows the address of those who opened the attachment and knows that email address is ‘live’ – they will sell onwards, and a good chance that e-mail address will start to get more and more spam messages……
