At this time of trauma for businesses in general and pubs in particular, aren't we in Audlem lucky to be able to welcome Paul, the new landlord of the Lord Combermere, rather than have it follow the fate of the Crown and the Lamb Hotels that were converted into living accommodation in times gone by. The new menu looks lovely, and I'm sure the provision of a vegetarian option is only a small matter that can be easily adjusted

I know you can't please all of the people all of the time but I am really disappointed that the menu does not have any vegetarian options for the main course. That will exclude my family from visiting and it's very unusual nowadays. I was looking forward to the opening

....then, not 45 minutes later. some 'person' in a white pick-up, stops outside the same gates, got out, urinated on the road, got back in his vehicle, threw an empty Red Bull tin on the road and drove off!
You've all heard the saying; "You can't judge a book by it's cover'. Well, I'll argue with that because you can!!!
What is wrong with people!!!!

To the kind person who stopped outside my house (because of the traffic lights) got out of their car, threw a used toilet roll over my gate, got in the car and drove off. Many thanks; just what I wanted! You should have saved it and chucked it at me when I'm on stage....if I ever actually do go on stage again that is!
Anyway; I'm just off to check my CCTV camera footage. ;-)

Well done, KISA RC – what a lovely thing to do in helping the fair maiden (is that allowed these days?) through, what must have been a stressful experience. I find just entering a supermarket stressful.

Ann – I would use your Apple pay in our excellent Co-op as practice, then you can produce it at 'big scary shops' with a flourish. I practised with mine at Lord C – it knows Shiraz very well now :)

I hope John has a speedy recovery from that scary operation!

Is it just me or is £100 a year for the increase in the costs of "off grid" heating a joke.
Why are we not getting similar support from the government as people who has access GAS, is it become we are the minority?

Thanks Bob. ;-)

Tuesday I drove John to Leighton, my fourth trip there in nine days , for a double cataract operation. I didn't want to wait for up to five hours so went to Sainsbury at Nantwich, first supermarket visit for longer than I remember. In my excitement I did get a little carried away and after meeting a few Audlem friends I eventually fetched up at the tills. I don't use self service tills, partly incompetence and mainly as it seems to be taking a job from someone. Panic set in when I had to pay! My Apple pay set up by our eldest granddaughter failed to work, much stress for myself and the long queue behind me, sorry folks!
Two or three cards later as I feverishly tried different numbers i was escorted to the customer service desk. Tried again , still not sure if that card has been blocked, but a knight in shining armour, mild exaggeration, in the form of RC from Audlem , took it upon himself to pay the substantial amount for me.
I'm not sure that this would happen in many places. I am very grateful and yes, he has been paid back although that stretched my online skills somewhat.

As she was my Mother in Law I assure you that her name was Emmy

Her first name started with an 'E'. It's not a quiz; I'd just like to know/remember. So would a few of my ex Audlem mates. So if it's ok with you (you know who you are) would you mind reminding us of Mrs Eatons first name please?

Dear M Brown
I believe the relevant planning application number is 19/0185N; approved 7/19. This should assist in enabling you to view the full details of the proposal on the CE Planning Section of the website.
You may also wish to view the CE Local Plan and Audlem Neighbourhood Plan to address your concerns.
If you have any further queries may I suggest you contact me via Rachel.bailey@cheshireeast.gov.uk

Rachel
Audlem CE Cllr

A planning application was granted some time ago for this work, which is a vehicle access to the farm. The planning consent also required discontinuance of the use of access road by agricultural vehicles onto the sharp bend on Woore Road down towards the village.
Chatting to the farm manager who is doing the work, I understand that the scheme involves replanting some hedging on Paddock Lane and planting new hedging along each side of the new access road.

Does anyone know anything about the new opening that has just appeared at the Audlem road end of Paddock Lane. It's appeared in the last week or so where there used to be farm hedging. The opening is enormous and bigger that the actual road in opens too and looks like the opening to a new housing estate. I can't imagine why any farm access would need something so big, but I suspect it leads to Parker's contracting, could this be the start of the next big planning application for houses and a change of usage from a brown site area to residential site !!

@Roger Whittaker. I would consider helping you. Please contact me later today 079506626629

Does anyone know if Jean Moss is still living in or around Audlem?

She is the author of "Walking Back, Memories of Africa ". It is the most beautiful story and such an interesting book, particularly if you love Africa.

I would dearly love to meet Jean and chat about Africa. I was told she lived in or around Audlem but I'm not sure when this was. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you. Clare Ward

Thank you everybody.Saint James was ideal

I am looking for some home help to provide us a few hours per week (paid) for me and my boys, at home, on Cheshire Street.

I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a GCSE Biology Tutor please?

Thank you all for your useful feedback.

I would also like to warn anyone recently bereaved of responding to any correspondence claiming to be a long lost relative. half sibling etc. that claims (or later claims) to have entitlement over the estate This is also a common scam which relies on a response from the bereaved and resultant costs of defending their claim often means it is cheaper to pay them out, than to defend. What ever you do, do not even reply to such emails/ letters until such times as the estate is settled and you are in a less vulnerable state. If they are genuinely "lost" a few more months shouldn't do any harm and ask yourself why they have at this point suddenly been able to trace & identify you ?

I too was recently contacted by J Smith informing me DVLA had noted my road fund tax was due. Clearly a scam as it was paid for 12 month in February

Yipppeee, they're still emptying the bins on Monday
