Attempted Break In Abbotts Lane Tonight
On Facebook somebody reports that their front door handle was tried to see if it was open. The lights were on, they were in and security light came on.
This is disconcerting.
This individual says it has happened once before.
Another person mentions same scenario, the dogs went mad.
If this stunt is tried at our house they will get 22kg of muscle and teeth with night sight flying at them. He doesn't let go. He will be closely followed by a golfing male wielding a mashie niblick. One's home is one's castle. Most probably against the law but they shouldn't be breaking in.
Too many horror stories in the press. We should have similar laws as US. The right to fire arms and a right to shoot intruders.
Last night a girl on FB said someone tried to set her car on fire which was on her drive.
I know the technique used, it was mentioned in The Daily Post. This was Cae Vounog which must be a new estate.
I hope these people have reported incidents to NWP.

Speeding in the village
North Wales Police were up The Vounog yesterday educating motorists. Down here in Chester Rd we have a speed hump to slow down traffic. Some motorists go full speed over them.
In fact some motorists use the traffic bump as an over taking opportunity when motorists slow down for the bump.
Profiles of the speed bumps can be made more severe at little cost.
Our lolly pop man is currently unwell and last week a young girl had a narrow escape I am told. We had a road traffic accident 2 days ago between a bus and two cars. Nothing to do with the bus driver. There was a rather large bang as the two cars collided. The give way at the bottom of Penymynydd Rd a dated function not fit for modern roads.
Time for some education in Chester Road.
Time for 20mph zones. Flintshire County Council currently have an allergy to 20 mph zones.
It would be good to see a change of policy.

Penyffordd Bus Time Table
I'm told time tables have changed. I try not to use buses myself after my Crosville experiences as a child. The use of a car is the ultimate freedom.
Here's the time table which I presume is correct.
http://www.flintshire.gov.uk/en/PDFFiles/Roads-and-Travel/Bus-Timetables/3-3A.pdf
Here's an app below.
It says they do the trains too
My wife uses an app to see if trains to Wrexham are running on time or cancelled due to vehicles hitting bridges.

No Entry at the top of Penymynydd Rd
HGC De Sir Fflint / NWP South Flintshire
Word of warning, as of the 13th December the ‘Fail to comply with No Entry Sign’ offence has reverted back to an endorsable offence under section 36 of the RTA.
This means 3 points on your driving licence or to put it another way caught 4 times means you lose your licence.
Police still get reports from Penymynydd Road about people entering the No Entry sign near the school so be aware.

A Happy Christmas for Trevor
All the best for Christmas and the New Year.
For the last 3 months or so a guinea fowl called Trevor has been wondering around Penymynydd roundabout trying his best to get run over. He's famous on Facebook.
Apparently Trevor hails from Spon Green in Buckley.
There have been numerous attempts to catch him by the RSPCA and others.
A local couple called Duncan and Frances who had been feeding him managed to catch him last week.
Trevor now resides in Gordale Garden Centre where he has loads of new guinea fowl mates.

I've started following Bernie Attridge on Twitter
I have a Facebook account and a Twitter account. Thought I'd start following @bernieatto
Its a bit lively.... https://twitter.com/bernieatto
For those who do not know Bernie is Deputy Council Leader of Flintshire County Council.
I find Twitter very good. I follow all sorts of people including Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin.
Theresa May is not impressed with Twitter I think, its too honest. She does have an account.
I retweet stuff to her about 20 times a day.
Any politician not telling the truth gets outed immediately.
