the nimbys lost

Well we are getting to coming out of the wretched lockdown timetable the council has imposed on us for nearly 4 years I got to see a bus that will be running on the new service the T22 today, no one I had talked to had actullay seen any of these buses but they exist obviously I just need to see one in service now.

I just went to tesco and the driver told me that there was an electric bus in the new chargng place so off I went for nose, apparetntly they take 12 hours to charge and can go all day on that charge which is handy as there are not that many charging points around, these electric buses will be good if you want to listen to music on your way to work as they are quiet 

I think these buses cost about half a million each a lot of money for a bus, roll on the day they come into service now so we can get out of the lockdown shit once and for all, I think these buses will help the tourist induustry around and it nice to see something coming here for a change instead of being closed or taken away the nimby bastards did not win in the end thankfully 

Well there is just over a week to go now till the new service starts there are signs everywhere so it migh just happen, I was at the pub last night and some folk had to go home at 9 due to the imposed lockdown service but they will be able to go home later in a while hopefully which will make life better for people round here and me the council have been cruel keeping us in the lcckdown, people have probably had to buy cars to cope with the situation 

In the pub last night I was given credit for this service starting I don't think its anything to do with me, but if my trolling and hastling people has helped secure the service then that is great at times I have got annoyed about the situatom and been quite hosptile but it was only due to the frustration of not having my normal bus service which I am totally dependent on to get around this area, there is nothing in the village except an little shop which is lacking at times in good customer service for whatevtaer reason, there is pub here too but thats it, everything else is located outside the village. I can't afford to take a taxi everywhere maybe I will need to use them when older who knows, I will also be able to go places in the evening if I want to, I may not want to but there will be a choice, like in the pub on saturday night there  is a crowd who sing and shout the same old shit every week atleast from now on I will be able to get out and go somewhere else, 

This will not be the last time I blog about the bus serviee I don't think. I came across an article today about some day locally that wants to promote sustainable communities and one of the speakers is a nimby who did not want the electric bus depot and its jobs in his community, how ironic and hypocritical, hopefully people will not waste time listening to the twat, time they will not get back in their lives 

I am hoping that a better bus service leads to less cars being in the village as they clog up the place, though another bus service was terminated this week one step forward two steps back its ridiculous. The reason I don't want so many cars in the village as a few park like twats all over the place making life difficult for pedestrians.

Some might say go on the council, it might be easier in relation to getting support perhaps but at the moment its not the right time, maybe there will never be a right time

whist

Well I achieved something last night, which I thought was going to be beyond me, I guess to a lot of people what I achieved, was pretty trivial, but I guess we all see things different;ly, what I achieved was to get over 170 score in a whist drive.  Last night was the first time I had ever done it, had a few scores in the 160's but not in the 170's which I see as the holy grail of scores to get as you will probably win then, which in fact I didn't last night, someone scored more than me, by 1 point.  I was not that bothered about that, all I was concerned about was getting a score above 170, I have been going to whist for years off and on and was never, until last night able to get the magic score, I am surprised I got the score last night as I had a bad headache all evening, I guess it was the luck of the cards that got me through. I thought I would never get the score, as I don't see very well, and struggle to make out the cards sometimes which is a bit of a strain,

great war

I went to an exhibition today, which was about the first world war, it mainly seemed to be full of photos of men from my home village who had fallen in the great war, they were all young obviously not ravaged by time.  It was a bit sad to think that so many young men from the place where I grew up were killed, it had their names and the names of where they lived, the names of houses and streets are the same today Sometimes you feel the outside world does not affect what happens here, but I guess it must do as it dragged a load of the young men here into the conflict which was going on at that time, I am not sure I agree with them going to fight, but that is neither here nor there, the fact is they did and that was what was going on at that time. My grandfather was in the first world war, but he was lucky enough to survive, even though he did leave his calf muscle over there in wherever he was, it must have been hell for him really and I guess I will never know what he saw there, al

shack

I did not go the 4th day of the walk, I could not face another 10 miles of plodding around the countryside, I think this is mainly due to the fact that I have not been walking quite so much in the last year, due to bad weather and things like that.  I did not think I would even finish 2 days but I did 3 in the end, more than anyone else except the person who organised the walk.   Instead of going on the walk i tidied up around the place, and just sat around, and also watched the football this afternoon, it was a crap day.  I did not even go for a short walk, its still perishing out there, I have a short walk on Wednesday, a kind of trail run for group who want to do this short walk, a recky or something they call it. I have at last heard when the new kitchen is being put in, apparently its on the !0th of April, I should have a received a 21 day notice but I didn't, which I guess is typical of the organisation who are doing the work. I am a bit apprehensive about the rewiring as the
