Geraint Davies on CE Footpaths report

2nd March 2024 @ 9:27am

What a wonderful and heart warming report by Steve Elliot about Cheshire East's efficient and generous response to footpath problems in and around Turnpke Field. It really put you immediately in a good mood to start the day with a smile. Thankyou Steve and thankyou Chesire East. (It's nice to be able to say that isn't it?)

Andy Davidson on Parkers beware

1st March 2024 @ 3:51pm

I don't really understand why this is an issue. I'm sure that the charges will be well signposted (I'm pretty sure that's a legal requirement) and if you are parking there legitimately it won"t be a problem to register your car when you go in the pub.

What it will do is stop people blocking the carpark for genuine customers.

Bob Fousert on BobCat

29th February 2024 @ 8:42am

So sad to hear of the passing of BobCat and what a lovely tribute by Carl. No matter when we turned up at the Bowling Club, whether to play or just carry out some work, it wouldn't be five minutes before BobCat would arrive, running over to greet us. He was very popular with the bowlers and not just those from our Club, but away players too. Yes, he had a free spirit, but liked to live dangerously too as he thought nothing of casually ambling across the green to lay down ln the middle during a match with jacks and bowls flying all over the place or making a comfy bed out of player's clothing left on the benches. Nothing seemed to faze him and he always made himself very much at home. A real cool cat! One thing is for sure, he will be missed by many.

James Watkins on Parkers beware

29th February 2024 @ 7:27am

Hello everyone, just wanted to point out to people that the landlord of the Shroppie Fly is installing Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR)in their car park which is being run by a private company. So if you park in their car park and don't register the car with the staff you will automatically be sent a fine.

I would take a look at Vodafone or Plusnet on the Uswitch site

John Vickers on Air band

28th February 2024 @ 3:32pm

We have changed from BT, and have gone from 5mbps to 150. No problems after two months and £25 per month unlimited useage. No more pizza wheels!

Kathryn Poultney on Air band

28th February 2024 @ 8:48am

Hi all,
Has anyone changed to airband? If so is it worth changing from BT, which is becoming increasingly expensive!
We are mainly looking at the reliability and speed.
Thanks in advance.

Sarah Wright on Black and white cat

27th February 2024 @ 6:09pm

A black and white cat has been hit on Cheshire Street near the bus stop. A guy from Daisybank stopped and has taken it to the RSPCA at Stapeley (6pm approx). It's injured but alive. Back leg hurt.

Bob Fousert on Win Some – Lose Some

27th February 2024 @ 10:52am

Thanks Rachel for the update. Given that Cheshire East is going to receive some £180M from the aborted HS2 pot over the next 7 years, the Corporate Peer Review can't come soon enough. Hopefully, this will ensure that the money is spent where it is intended and not wasted on politically correct vanity projects . Maybe then our roads can finally be PROPERLY repaired instead of us having to suffer the dangerous dirt tracks that currently pose as main arterial routes across the authority's area.

Dave Lambourne on Another Pothole! Woore road

23rd February 2024 @ 2:02pm

To help others, just warning of a Pothole on the West bound carriageway of the A525 Woore Road, about 1/4 mile before arriving at the 40mph limit at Buerton. Its close to the road centreline and perfectly placed to take out your offside as I found out yesterday to my cost! Both front and rear tyres deflated/damaged and needed immediate replacement. I wasn't even travelling fast, as I was following a tractor but there was a lot of spray coming off the wet surface and didn't see the road damage which was also filled with water. I have called this in to Cheshire Highways as an emergency requirement and have now submitted my claim for compensation. Interestingly enough it had been previously marked for repair but obviously not carried out.

Chris Lewis on Pothole Green lane

22nd February 2024 @ 9:12pm

The next pothole is opening up just opposite the end of my drive , give it it's due it was "filled" last autiumn, its 3 little sisters are just appearig as well. Mindyou as yet we have a long way to go to emulate station road Wrenbury nice to think we are slightly ahead of our neighbours in Shropshire

I reported it on the 13th February and I have since had a reply saying it is "in progress"! What that may mean is beyond me because I suffer CE Highways fools quite badly.

Longman's farm shop on Fresh fish

22nd February 2024 @ 6:42pm

Just to let everyone know we are selling fresh fish every Friday from 8 till 12.30 come have a coffee in the coffee shop or browse the farm shop there's lots of local produce for sale all at Longman's farm shop Whitchurch Road Nantwich Cw58dj

Bob Fousert on Pothole Green lane

I certainly recognise the pot hole Celia is referring to. It is one of those that was 'repaired' not that long ago utilising the infamous, low cost, CE Road Maintenance "Dump and Pat the Tarmac" pot hole repair system. Far from being economical, the fact that this method of repair is as much use as a chocolate fire guard and therefore, requires repeated visits, make this yet another criminal waste of tax payers money for which CE is renowned.

Given the fact that CE have decided, in their infinite wisdom, to 'save money' be reducing the road maintenance budget by around £0.8M this comming year, the chances are that road users will be running an ever increasing risk of pot hole damage to their vehicles.

Therefore, I have included a link to the Money Saving Expert (TV's Martin Lewis) website which provides a comprehensive guide on how to make a successful claim against any council that fails in its upkeep of our roads. Only by hitting them in the pocket will things ever change.

Julia Parton on Road closure Audlem to nantwich

22nd February 2024 @ 11:55am

Have just spoken to someone from Cheshire East Highways who informed me that the road is closed from the centre of Audlem even though the work been carried out is 6 miles away because in the past they have received complaints from people living in The Dig lanes about the excessive increase in traffic particularly large vehicles!!!!!. The fact that if you follow the diversion it puts at least 10 miles onto your journey +more large vehicles are having to go around the church seems irrelevant.!!.He said the work was due to be completed tomorrow. 🤞

Carol Haq on A charm of siskins

22nd February 2024 @ 10:28am

We have been blessed with 20 to 30 siskins on our feeders, together with the usual goldfinches and greenfinches. The trees are awash with their beautiful song. I have never seen so many in the 40 years that we have lived here. A little bit of joy in a troubled world.

Lapse of concentration for a moment and lost a tyre. Hole nr edge of road past the temporary lights leaving village. I need to re visit to photograph etc but anyone reported it?

Steve Elliott on Road closure Audlem to nantwich

21st February 2024 @ 5:35pm

I understand that the road works are re-surfacing outside the Globe Inn. First or Second Dig Lane provides a simple detour

Sonia Kay on Road closure Audlem to nantwich

21st February 2024 @ 2:14pm

Hi Barry – the signage elsewhere says 20-24th Feb. The closure itself is six miles away just before Brine Leas School. It feels like the signs in Audlem seem to be causing more bother than the closure itself, as the obstruction is causing mayhem in the village, as you point out.

Sylvia Stead on Road closure Audlem to nantwich

21st February 2024 @ 1:24pm

I have just phoned Cheshire East to find out how long the road closure from the village to Nantwich will be and I was told it will be closed from the 19th until the 23rd. I expressed my concern that there has been no notification and poor signage for large vehicles entering the village.

Celia Bloor on Road closure Audlem to nantwich

21st February 2024 @ 6:49am

We passed signs nr Brine Leas school saying closed there for 4 days starting 20th. For light vehicles there are plenty of options.
