  1. I am not sure that that is a fair summary. I'm sure that the Police have done everything they can but I think the lack of an arrest is probably down to lack of witnesses or even no witnesses or evidence which has made the investigation a nightmare I would imagine.
  2. Adrian, this has been discussed on both of these topics. You are right and that is why that have to have SIA door staff after 1.30am but have a read through all of the discussions it is an interesting read.
  3. I like the European market days with some excellent food choices from our European friends. Some lovely bread too.
  4. About time, I always thought this 1.30am hot food thing was out of date.
  5. I see what Roger means it may force people to login in order to see the members only forum which is a good thing. I do not think anyone has anything in particular to hide but if you want to discuss something prior to putting in the main domain that could be a good thing too.
  6. BA need to clamp down on these illegal immigrants, we are too soft in the UK by far.
  7. Wow not being very pleasant in that topic about hv or the members here they once exchange discussions with are they? its a betrayal of friendship - I believe were the words bobby used but it was in defence of his friends that he was referring too when he typed that and not hv or the members still here. Colin has normally taken a pretty sensible approach here and I am sure nothing will change but I understand that he needs to get to the bottom of it all at he same time. He runs a tight ship here and long may this continue. If people didn't get so wound up and just accepted opinions from all sides the administrators would not be put in the difficult positions of making some tough decisions in the first place. I liked it when everyone just discussed things like adults without flying off the handle because someone else disagreed with them or their choice of politics.
  8. HV is on the ball to be fair. Play is probably in need of a revamp by now I would imagine, so timing is everything.
  9. Bill Norman redundant? This sounds like it came out of the blue Chris or was this expected?
  10. Oh yes, a quick lick of paint and a tidy up and back on the market it goes. I was under the impression Cllr. Rone was going to revamp and re-open how naive of me.
  11. I was in town and saw these vile coloured building blocks. This is what the building industry has come too? It looks like it should belong at Legoland and the colour is even better!!!
  12. Its about having a choice, let the stores open and if you need that one day to wind down then thats fine too but don't stop others just because you may not agree.
  13. Yes this is vital for the community, the last thing we want is more closures.
  14. Good call Cllr. Additional lighting and CCTV are needed along this path. Lets hope that the police can jog someones memory with regard to this awful murder.
  15. I cannot understand for the life of me why this work that Glenda Powell had meeting about never actually happened, can you throw some light on this Glenda?
  16. Cant stand Katie Hopkins but as a regular traveler I have to agree with her on this one. We were charged an extra £30 for having excess baggage only last year and I am talking a few kg. She has a valid point, we got charged for a few extra kilo's even though one guy looked like he would struggle to get into a seat, how is that fair? I reckon passengers should be weighed with their luggage. (Other than a few people who would be exempt because they may have genuine medical reasons) There must be an average based upon your height for example. I am about 88kg (about 14 stone) and I am 5ft 10, I would consider myself a fair bit over weight but not loads over weight for my height. I am allowed to carry hand luggage of 15 kg add this to my weight and you have a combined weight of 103kg. So would you agree someone over 22 stones for example to be considered very over weight at the same height? 22 stone=140kg add this to the hand luggage allowance of 15kg gives a combined weight of 155kg the difference in this case would be 52kg=just over 8 stone, which is heavier than my wife. Take your average Airbus a-320 with a capacity of 150 seats, if just 12% of passengers were at this weight that would be an extra 936kg which is well over a ton of extra weight and guess who is paying for the extra fuel folks? This is certainly worth exploring and a debate in my opinion.
  17. Yes because the old market is private and they employ site cleaners
  18. Its the same in Bristol and a lot of other big cities, why are the council not removing these adverts?
  19. I would think there is some sort of meeting or event or maybe some courses being run at the college for a period of time.
  20. I like Colin's suggestion, it just has to be better than whats there at the moment, there appears to be no attempt to make it even look slightly better over the past 5 years which is frustrating.
  21. Better to have companies in these units rather than empty ones. Good luck to them I say.
  22. Your comments are always welcome Slim, the majority of us are not qualified but we share our views all the same. Good to see you joining in the debate.
