Bad Move

COWS A55

North Wales Police control room saying cows that were threatening to get onto the A55 at the A550 Dobbshill earlier this morning are now back in their field.

Meanwhile in Wrexham someone has set a bobby's car on fire (perhaps premature comment we shall see). That's on top of the 7 cars set alight last week

Cuts are on the way

Flintshire County Council want your help to save money. Gordon Brown wound
our debt up to £0.8 trillion, then George Osborne sent it up to £1.5 trillion.

Here's the deal.

Penyffordd Health

I see our new health centre in Hope is coming on well. Will they have enough doctors to run it?

Here's something to help you stay away from the doctors.
I take it every day with piperine to increase absorption of the curcumin.

Road Collision Padeswood

TRAFFIC 8.15 am

The A5118 is closed in both directions due to an accident involving three vehicles between Padeswood Road South (Padeswood) and Bannel Lane (Penymynydd). Police are directing traffic with emergency services on the scene near the cement works.

Penyffordd Christmas Coffee Morning

School Children Fun Run

Bad Driving II

I see the M56 was closed yesterday afternoon for 12 hours and the trains stopped. 4 car pile up A55  at Conway. Cyclist knocked off his bike in Wrexham.

I suppose its all due to volume and a legion of  idiots.

Which leads me onto........

Speed restrictions are going to happen on the Penyffordd Bypass. Not sure if the restriction includes the bypass but we are talking south of the village.

Cllr Stan Davies has mentioned the speeding on this section of road some years ago.
I find walking on the path next to this section of road un-nerving. 60 mph traffic within 3 feet of the path unacceptable. Some do 80 mph.......

Flintshire County Council advisory notices are on lamp posts.

ps.  Councillors there is speeding over the speed humps on Chester Rd. If you don't believe me get FCC to put down speed recording equipment.

Time for full time 20 mph zones in the village for the idiots.

North Wales Bad Driving in The Daily Post

What's done about tail gaiting which is endemic - NOTHING

What's done about bikers using N Wales as a racetrack - NOTHING

NWP traffic section have been whittled down to NOTHING

What's our North Wales Police Commissioner doing about dangerous driving NOTHING

 idiots currently driving around - NOTHING

Well done Daily Post!

Flu Jab?

I'm going to be asked shortly.

I think I'll pass..................

The science on vaccines is not awfully well understood.

ps. Last year's flu jab was a waste of money because they chose the wrong strains.........

Anti Social behaviour by youths tonight

Comment put on blog tonight.

"I see the village idiots have been at it again in the park. They are antisocial enough with their daily shouting, drinking, playing loud music etc to all hours at night. Tonight the clowns reached new levels with a very loud firework and creating a large fire in the allotment area. The fire engine has just been down to put it out. How long do we have to out up with these asbo youths?"

One presumes our councillors will get on the case.

Perhaps a few of them need a good tasering...............(edit) that's anti socials not cllrs...

and a month in jail.

Or perhaps a few days in the village stocks by the Millenium clock.
Eggs and tomatoes supplied.

Up S Creek Further

Public transport companies who service Penyffordd community have been looking to make efficiency's including stopping buses to our health centre in Buckley.

There also appears to be trouble with school children getting Castell Alun our main secondary school.
Cllr Cindy Hinds reports there are serious issues with the bus company that takes our children to the Hope school. Flintshire County Council are getting involved.

Perhaps by now it is all sorted.

Penyffordd Local Development Plan

http://www.flintshire.gov.uk/en/PDFFiles/Planning/Candidate-Sites-Register-%E2%80%93-Map.pdf

We've got off very lightly you should see Buckley's

So ! We have the candidate suggestions in, to shape the future development of Penyfffordd district. There are tens of millions of pounds swilling around in the barrel.

http://www.flintshire.gov.uk/en/PDFFiles/Planning/settlement-PDFs/Penyffordd--Penymynydd-settlement.pdf

Who is doing the suggesting?  You have to go to county hall to find out.

It can't be emailed or put on the Flintshire County Council website.

Why?

Perhaps we need to follow the money.
Who is Mr Big? Making all these suggestions.

Why aren't our councillors explaining things properly?
Ah! they will say "If you had attended so and so meeting and looked at this spread sheet and that spread sheet you would know what's happening."

All this could be explained on the council £600 website (and counting)

But its not. I feel it's Penyffordd Community Council's job to communicate before it's too late.
Pen041 an example of why they can't be trusted.

Some of you are having a skate park, Spar type shops, etc next to your houses.
Some of you won't be able to see Hope mountain after they're finished.
Have you looked at the above document properly?

I've been going on about the bulldozing of houses (Pen041) and the knocking down of The Spar (Pen035)  our only village shop. I've not looked at the rest properly. It's been better explained to me by Flintshire planners. A job our councillors are not doing. It's not a question of waiting until someone asks a question. It should be about communicating the possible options that are going to happen.

Penyffordd Institute

Cllr Cindy Hinds in her recent newsletter mentions a possible upgrade to the Institute which is showing its age. An architect has been appointed. Mark Tami MP and Carl Sargeant AM have been contacted

This is good news.

I think the Institute Committee should improve their communications to be inline with 21st century practice. A contact email on their notice board, one on the Penyffordd Community Council board and website.

It's current profile similar to Penyffordd mason's lol

It's easier to contact President Putin of Russia than book the Institute for a do.

Good for you Bob.

Street lights are to be switched off

Flintshire County Council are looking for many ways to save money. One of the ways forward is to turn off certain street lights. Dangerous roads, junctions and pensioner complexes will not be affected. Cindy is opposed to this measure being taken.
