Frankie's Bakery (where Elias used to be)

Just when you think there's no space for another bakery in town, Frankie's opens... and immediately becomes your favourite!

Our first visit today and we're very impressed. Delicious pastries (including squishy cinnamon buns), savouries, breads and decent coffee too. The friendly team at Frankie's are going to be very busy, and for good reason.

No association, just a very happy customer (with a particular penchant for tasty bakery goods and friendly service).

Operation Chis-Choke update

With traffic speeds increasing along CHR from glacial to halting, we've had to resort to our favourite measure, namely disabling the lights at the junction with TGT, as ever to excellent effect! Hopefully will be in operation for some weeks as no "workers" in evidence at the site!

Has anyone lost a black & white cat ?

A cat has been hanging a round my garden since last week. She’s doesn’t look like a stray but I’ve tried a paper collar and I’ve taken her to check for a microchip and she doesn’t have one.

If ever you doubted the North/South divide..

There is an interesting and sobering article on the BBC website regarding the 10 most deprived areas of England.Six are in the North West,once known as 'the workshop of the world'and the other four are in Yorkshire,the North East and The Midlands.It may come as a surprise to some at the sheer level of deprivation,but not to me.

Nuclear testing.

A technical question. Does nuclear testing have any effect on global warming?

Labour: Early report by slightly biased constituent

The latest hoohah over Rachel Reeve's letting out her property without a licence is a mistake made by many of us, but not many of us have held the office of Chancellor of the Exchequer, and been part of a team headed by Sir Keir, who prided himself pre election on the ethics and integrity of his party.She should have known better and Kemi Badenoch and the media have every right to badger her.A list of hiccups relating to Sir Keir's ever so righteous party-Louis Haigh: Resigned from being Transport minister having lied to police about having her phone stolen.Mike Amesbury: Resigned after consumming quite a few juices and drunkenly assaulting a constituent.Dan Norris: Suspended for alleged rape and child offences.Angela Rayner- Resigned over avoiding stamp duty.Rachel from A/C's: Lied on her CV (which would account for her budgets missing the mark). Also her Latest novel on Economics littered with plagiarism. Last but not least got herself in trouble with breaking the ministerial code over not obtaining a licence for letting out her London home.A sorry tale of a party failing on all counts.
