Loved the show tonight. Congrats to everyone involved. Great fun. If the rest of the run goes half as well folks are in for a treat.

Well as a dog owner I am happy to pick up my dogs doggie doos and then put it in the required bin.
However,you secret dog poo people that do not think that they have to do that ......I am watching you!
Be afraid ...be very afraid!
I am taking pictures of your activities!
How dare you act so irresponsibly!? why do you think that it is okay to hang your doggie poo in the trees and hedges along the walks in AUDLEM.
Your arrogance is unbelievable !
I have some evidence already,
,love taking pictures of doggy doos hanging in trees etc (Not really,I think you are disgusting.)
And...more than that you are in the village, you enjoy all the things that we do in this lovely village.
YOU are spoiling all our attempts at making this a wonderful place to live!

Hi, the Guides collect these amongst lots of other things like bread wrappers, empty toothpaste packaging, cheese wrappers etc. There are collection boxes outside the Scout and Guide Hall on Cheshire Street.

I have just been walking along the bridleway between Bunsley Bank & Longhill Lane. There was a tractor spreading in the field next to it. I was engulfed in thick grey dust that covered my clothes. It was so dense that I couldn't see to the end of the bridleway, although I was near the end. It was absolutely choking. I appreciate that farmers need to spread and I 'm not complaining about that. My questions are, what is it? I'm assuming it was lime. Is it harmful?

Does anyone know of anyway of recycling FRocher boxes? I have a feeling that I read on here that someone was collecting them a while ago

I might be interested in some of it if I could have some contact details

Hi Marilyn,
We look forward to welcoming you to the hall for the show!
There is a fully stocked bar for all your drink and snack requirements. We have a strict NO NUTS policy, and our bar is stocked appropriately.
When you're in your seats, you'll find that the bar is "behind you!"

Hello, this may seem a strange question, but not when you are organising nibbles and drinks! :-)
Could anybody advise if it will be seating only for the Panto, or are there tables as well?
Look forward to receiving your help, oh yes I am!

There are a small number of additional tickets that have been made available for the evening shows, last minute bookings welcome for Thurs / Fri / Sat evening, 7:30pm at the Public Hall:

I've a few items of studio equipment for disposal ..Interfit Cyberflash 300's, Bowens 5x30w continuous, Sekonic light meter, sundry stands and supports and a roll of Chroma Blue backdrop paper.
Any suggestions?

I would see this as a doubling of opportunities to support local events and charities.

A clash of dates for 2 worthy causes in 25 th of March . Seems to bo a bit of an oversight by the organisers

Try John Preston 07879-551093. Excellent work and very thorough.

Another recommendation for Audlem Dry Cleaners – and not just for curtains. Fabulous service to have in the village.

Hi, My son has a solid brick house that needs the failed render replacing. We would rather use a traditional lime render to maintain breathability and not make it damp again, but are struggling to find anyone that does it!

Any suggestions? House is an end terrace in Willaston.
Thanks Gary

I always use Audlem Dry Cleaners in Audlem village, excellent work re alterations and repairs and do not cost arm and a leg.

An amusing item but possibly unwise to give Cheshire East Highways ideas?

I thoroughly recommend Mark Clay, who has done our PAT testing at Audlem Mill for several years. Much better prices than most people. Find him on 07776 346807, or mcpattests@outlook.com.

Hi folks,
If you are a cat owner in or around the above area, please be vigilant.
I saw a neighbour throw something over my fence earlier... as it was going dark. On first glance I just assumed it was one of my white stones, as occasionally they do venture under the fence. However, just ten minutes later I saw a kitty licking said stone... and on closer inspection it turned out to be an unhealthy looking piece of chicken, very raw in the middle!
Anyway, if you own a cat then please do be vigilant and keep a look out for the idiot (raw/ gone off) meat thrower! AND, if you see any meat/chicken in the alleyways or the street, please pop it in a bin... let's try and keep all the little puddings safe!

Just saw the post for the job oc Clerk for the Cemetary. What are the prospects for advancement and promotion, or is this just a dead end job?

Does anyone do PAT testing please?

The following item, recently posted on the Adderley website, might be of interest, especially to anyone trying to bypass 'Swanbach Ford'.

Hello, am looking for someone who could take up curtains for me please. Could anyone recommend someone local to Buerton please?

Rumour has it that Middlewich Road, Nantwich to Leighton, will re-open 13th February 2023!! Fingers Crossed.

Took my wife there last week..

Going. Audlem to Reese Heath – Church Minshull- Right past Badger into Church Lane, Right into Eardswick Lane to lights, Right to road block, ( one way) left down to main entrance... (dropped wife off and headed for Minshull's, just got into the car park and she rang to say she was ready for collection...)

Return, Left out of Main Entrance, huge queue at the roundabout for Flowers Lane during the week 20 minutes to the lights, so choice either straight on Bradfield Road heading for Sydney ( no Opera House in sight) or Right into Minshull Hall Road crossing roundabout past Pymms Lane to end, Right into West Street to Marshfield roundabout and back to civilisation.
During the weekends cars are parked down both sides of Minshull Hall Road...nightmare.
Another wonderful example of Cheshire East's planning ability.
