The large pot hole opposite my drive has been filled, but just looks like some asphalt slapped into the major part of the hole. No doubt the running water will soon erode the filling and we will be back to square one.. Hardly a case of a stitch in time.

Hi Everyone! I'm a Careers Advisor working with a local provate school. I have a Year 10 student from the area seeking a work experience placement for the 16th-18th Jiune! Can anyone help?

Be advised a deep growing pothole on A529 Green Lane heading out of Audlem. This pothole appears to have been repaired in the past but recent rains have resulted in repair failure.

3 youths all dressed in black apart from one dressed in very light coloured trousers passed our house last night ( 9th June) just after 8.35 pm and then returned shortly after and the youth in the light coloured trousers tried to kick our front door in. This youth had a light coloured logo on the front left side of their hoody.
After the door was kicked they ran away up Heathfield Road in the direction of the school.
We have contacted the police and sent them a full CCTV video of the incident together with a photograph of the 3 youths in the road just outside our house.
The police asked if anyone saw the three youths matching this description at around this time to contact them if you have any relevant information.
We know " Door kicking" incidents have been reported in the village before which also we believe involved 3 youths.

Hello everyone,

We have found a poorly hedgehog in our garden and have tried calling the RSPCA Nantwich but they are closed. Does anyone know of anywhere that can help?

Thanks,

Isobel

Jason is great and happy to do small numbers of sheep 07855 672544

Could anyone recommend a local sheep shearer please. We have six sheep which are in desperate need. Thank you.

To every single one of you who helped search for Dylan the naughty Toy Poodle who took off on his own day out yesterday 5th June. There were so many kind people who spent hours walking and driving round the village and it was a great comfort to know we weren't doing it on our own. Despite everyone's best efforts, he finally fetched himself within yards of home after 10 hours on his own adventure. Not a mark on him but tired and hungry. Our heartfelt thanks to all of you. We are so lucky to live in this wonderful village. Thank you.

I grew up in rural Warwickshire and we also called cow parsley 'kek'.

The bus will not be able to provide COVID vaccines tomorrow due to a supply issue but other services, routine vaccines & health checks will be available & the team will discuss other means of obtaining the COVID vaccine tomorrow.

Can anyone recommend a mortgage broker locally please

We seem to be pushed into risk by the authorities. Only one car park per town is promised to take cash. I try to avoid using card for parking but not always easy.

I had my credit card scammed on Wednesday last week – it has taken seven days to resolve – however on speaking to their fraud department parking meters are a major problem in card fraud – fortunately I used the card which is mainly used for one off payments – there were not many entries on my card for the last month prior to the frauds – the only one that stood out was Ringo in the village and the cost was £0.97 – the fraud department felt that was the problem payment – they are having high fraud problems with parking meters in the country -please check your accounts regularly after using parking apps.

I can personally recommend Vicky Lloyd. She has been cleaning for me for some time and has other clients in Audlem. She is extremely hardworking, pleasant, punctual and trustworthy. Her telephone number is 07503 427514.

Can anyone recommend a reliable cleaner for 2 hours weekly or 3 hours fortnightly please. Thank-you!

Many thanks Stephanie, for your brilliant expose' of the stupidity of Cheshire East who major in the art of ignoring their long-suffering taxpayers and find ever-new ways to waste our money whilst simultaneously ignoring the needs of our youngsters. Its strange to think that Crewe has produced some top BMX competitors who practice on extreme tracks in order to perfect the art of competition survival, yet CE cannot tolerate youngsters own creative abilities. With the growth of the village our young people need to be provided with a suitable means of recreation. The Turnpike with over 11acres of space should provide an area specifically for them.

As for the public liability issue, one answer could be the creation of a club that oversees the activity and undertakes its own form of liability in the form of a common acceptance of the risk by all parents involved, something that seems to be happening already. And the trees. Well CE again with liability issues in mind, are more adept at cutting them down to minimise risk to the public than preserving them. On Turnpike, following a required tree survey, we have had one oak tree cut down with no signs of rot in its trunk, it was merely 'in decline' and would have seen many years out and another, in the centre of the field, decimated to no good effect other than to uglify it. When councils employ arboreal experts, they have a vested interest in generating work and covering their backs.

I'd like to second Lynne's comments on the festival. I'm in awe at the vast amount of work that must go into organising such a huge and successful four day event. Brilliant work on the part of the organisers and all who helped. Very many thanks to them all.

A huge thank you to the committee for an excellent festival. Wonderful music, wonderful atmosphere, wonderful time. So much hard work goes into putting on this festival but it certainly paid off. This year's festival seemed to attract even bigger crowds with entertainment that catered for everyone. What a wonderful village we live in with so many people and businesses pulling out all the stops to put on an event like this. How lucky are we!
