God what a waste of time everything is! Submit plans for building new homes, reject as destroys traditional orchard, resubmit plans incorporating some trees, application accepted, build houses, sell houses, homeowner complains about trees, trees removed. Makes you wonder what the Fecking point of all this is, doesn't it!?

A tree house would be the perfect solution.

Keep it going, Garth, I think you've got him on the run; his reply this week was all over the place. Definitely popcorn eating material, I must have consumed about 3 pieces, already. As epistolary reading goes, it's not yet up there with "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society", but is definitely more riveting than "Letters of Two Brides". I have made another contribution. He's all pomp and no circumstance. Well, you've cetainly rattled him; if I understand his latest letter, he found your last communication interesting, informative and, erm, confusing. Right back at you, Richard. He also accuses you of betrayal, and finishes by basically saying, "I'll have the last word, thank you, no need to debate this any further." It's like arguing with one's significant other.

I think Mr Bradbury probably acknowledged defeat in his latest rather enigmatic way.

R&B (the real R&B) music club, Mods, scooters etc. I remember the club and was always jealous of older members of football teams I was in who were old enough to go. Closed down before I had the chance. The HT is claiming that The Who, Pretenders and UB40 played there, but, unless I was in a coma (or drunk to oblivion*) all through the 70s, I reckon it had closed long before the Pretenders and UB40 formed, and I'm only aware of The Who playing the Hostel in Hereford. * - That didn't happen because, before Cask Ale in the mid 70s, the p!ss available to drink made you sick before became drunk.

It's significant that the 'journalist' who created this piece is the one who not long ago claimed that Eign Street was Victoria Street and that in any event, the latter no longer existed. Were he to ever tell me the time I would want to check my watch. 🤔

IIRC, none of those bands played the 1600.

The Pretenders and UB40 didn't form until the late 70s, so this is probably poor HT journalism. They've probably read it somewhere else and cut and pasted it instead of researching their story.

I know he's only a young lad but somebody needs to get hold of him and explain what being a journalist/reporter entails. As it stands, he's way short of requirements. And, ecb, you're quite right. Such inaccuracies will eventually be presented as truth. All very disappointing.

"....converted in a flying laboratory....".
And this was penned by the editor.
I think the late Simon Blumlein deserved better.
Deary me.

"The Herefordshire Newspaper" continues to demonstrate that neither the editorial team nor the printers seem to have a clue about Herefordshire.
On page 3 today there is a feature with a photograph of a beaming Paul Rogers holding a framed picture that, according to the caption, he purchased at the new "St Richard's Hospice" charity shop in Eign Gate Hereford.
The first paragraph in the article below correctly states that it is, of course, a new St Michael's Hospice shop.
Dear oh dear. Really awful editorial standards.

There's a report in today's printed version about a police drugs raid on a home in Kingstone, and one in Hereford.
The accompanying photo's caption describes the raid in Hereford as a swoop, where they found a haul of suspected ecstasy tables.
E tables, then; presumably part of the range of furniture that was the forerunner to G Plan.
