At least the walking is good for you.

I'd also recommend Anthony Jess

Roofer recommendation: Anthony Jess

I have made 5 visits over 2 sessions to this so called walk-in service, 3 times have joined the line to be told of 1 +hr waits, 1 run out of vaccine and after 15 mins come back after lunch. No mention of lunch on the site!!!! Result NO JAB, 4 miles of walking and very angry!!

Would someone please recommend a roofer for investigation and rectification of a roof problem.
Thanks.

Many thanks to Joe, Mike and Terry for the recommendations – much appreciated :-)

I think you have misinterpreted the legislation, Stephen. What it is saying is you have 10 mins after your PAID period of parking has ended, there is no free ' dash to the shops'
3) No penalty charge is payable for the contravention where the vehicle has been left beyond the permitted parking period for a period not exceeding 10 minutes.

Whilst recognising the larger impact of car parking charges, I would point out that Cheshire East, no matter what the signs may say, are not legally able to issue a Penalty for failing to pay in a public car park until after a 10 minute grace period AND then a 5 minute observation period. Popping quickly into a shop etc in under 15 minutes should therefore not be chargeable or result in a penalty.

Shropshire actually promote this as a benefit for local businesses, and you will find a sticker on all of their parking meters – whereas Cheshire East do not. This assumes your vehicle is otherwise correctly parked.

The Civil Enforcement of Parking Contraventions (England) General (Amendment) Regulations 2015

Cheshire East have been trying this on for years across all of their car parks, but it is enshrined in legislation, regardless of what they think.

It would appear that many local councils of all political persuasions are going bankrupt at the moment. Whilst some of this maybe because of financial ineptness, it is obvious that there are real constraints on local government spending.
Ideally I would like Audlem to have totally free parking, and I know that some local authorities do have this for the first hour, only charging beyond that time. This would help solve the problem of parking for drop-offs, medical appointments etc.
I wondered if this could be a possible solution to the problem, especially with aid of modern technology.

The Chippy will be open Monday lunch but closed in the evening on 16th oct

Geraint is totally correct.
Please support the Saturday meeting at 10:30.
This CEC decision will affect each and every soul in Audlem and will possible mean the end of ASET events, because we close the car park and so CEC will need that cost covering by ASET that is Unless the PC will support us in that we are a community organisation not for profit and benefitting the community.
Audlem really does now need YOU.

I have to say that I personally can see no issue with the small charge being proposed for the car park. We can not expect these things to be looked after for nothing the money that is spent on the car park can be spent on much better things that people really struggling at the moment need. Surely the small sum for a days parking is nothing and if this frees up money that can be spent on better things then surely the people of Audlem can spare that small sum.

Well done great job,looking at the picture with the Cedar tree could it do with some good mulch ? The soil looks very compact and I'm sure it would be great for the tree's health

Hi – I'm looking to find a reliable and local Heating Engineer to service and maintain my LPG boiler – can anybody please help with any recommendations? Many thanks :-)

On Thurs evening the Parish Coucil held a public meeting in the Methodist Church to clarify in detail the many ramifications of Cheshire East's poorly thought out proposal to impose charges on Audlem car park. This meeting also allowed Audlem residents a chance to air therir views on the proposal. It was a very worthwhile exercise and those who were there gained a lot from it.

Unfortunately, considering the many complex and unwelcome consequences that imposing car park charging will have on the community, it must be said that the turn-out was not what I would have expected, which must have been a surprise and a disappointment to the organisers.

As it may have been impossible for many to attend this meeting on Thurs evening the Parish Council are holding another open meeting in the Public Hall this Saturday morning at 10.30am. To support the local coucillors in their efforts, to show solidarity in opposing the Cheshire East proposal, and to be thoroughly informed of the likely detrimental effects the proposal will have on many aspects of life in Audlem, l sincerely urge all residents to make a serious effort to attend this most important meeting on Saturday. Thank you.

Excellent response from the Public Hall Management Committee, well written, well researched.

Would there be any value in adding to the proposal that the Public Hall is used as a Polling Station for local and national elections?

What a fantastic initiative, well done people of Buerton.

Hi, please could someone tell me, if Audlem are offering a drop of center to get your covid jab done. If so, when is it and what times please?

Says it is from Longhill Lane to Windmill Road – Is this a mistake and it is actually a closure from Longhill Lane (Woore Road) to Windmill Lane, Buerton?
