The history seems ill-informed and inaccurate to me. I could be wrong, though.

"Temporary lights are due to be installed in Whitecross Road today (Monday) due to gas works. However, as of 9am, the work haden't started."
The insurance claim has to go something like, "I moved to the other side of the road to avoid the roadworks that were planned to start before I drove up that road. However, the roadworks had not started as planned."

Interestingly if one views the HT article on the accident and also their later piece on the fact that roadworks signage now arrived, the same vehicle appears in both, parked on the pavement. I have no idea if said parked vehicle was there before the accident in readiness to offload signage.

Clearly, that was an extremely serious RTC.

A good read. Sometimes we focus on the less salubrious aspects of Hereford.

Did they mention that it wasn't a four-hour hike to get to the football ground?

The Police canteen car was spotted at an incident in Whitehouse Way, today. Seems they can't spell the name of their favourite snack.

Page 9 of today's printed copy tells us of a Trinity school trip to that there London, in 1977.
Apparently, "Winged collars were the order of the day..."
That's a bit formal, isn't it?

That was the best trip ever the Trinity London trip. I think I would have gone in 81.

For any Trinity people this is roughly what I remember...
Stopping at LHR to see Concorde take off on the way down. Science Museum. Natural History Museum. British Museum. The Commonwealth Centre (not sure where that was, maybe on the south bank, but they had a big exhibition there at the time), Imperial War Museum, Trip on the Underground (I think), Up behind the clock face of Big Ben, Houses of Parliament, Downing Street (I think but might have made that up), A West End Show, Greenwich including the stars thingy, Cutty Sark? Adventure Playground (which was mentally dangerous gash timber so obviously great) football on Clapham Common.Â
They nailed it year on year until quite recently. Say 10 years ago.Â

I went on a school trip to the Natural History Museum in 1981 and had cause to attend the on-site conveniences.
Entered sober, emerged pissed as colourful feathery gobby thing from the Southern Hemisphere.

This week's printed edition, page 5, has a story about the rebranding of the cafe at Hereford railway station. The reporter points out that, in the plans for this, the word Confectionery has been misspelled as Confectionary.
Oh, the irony.
