Thankfully though, group B has the delights of Nicklas Bendtner to make up for the rest of the utter dross. With that warm cuddly feeling now in place, let's begin with the deadly striker's very own nation. It's DENMARK!!!
Now Deveron Gardens is a street made up, primarily of single story small homes for the elderly , as you will see from the video below, two vehicles were parked right across the full width of the pavement. This is not unusual and it even gets worse on Sundays and at other times when the Belhus Park Independent Evangelical Church has a meeting on - go figure that one for Christian community spirit - when they roll up to services and block the pavements in their posh cars!
We approached the severe S bends at the end of Foyle Drive, and joined a small paved footpath, before crossing over Stifford Road, I noticed that all the steel fencing, was in a very bad state of disrepair, every part of the fencing has rusted completely through, there were also several badly dented and twisted panels caused by something colliding with them,
I'll be airing my views on current issues, writing feature articles on any topic that comes to mind, producing previews and reviews. You get the idea anyway.
To be honest, I only moved on to the wines once my favourite ciders and perries had run dry. There were various wines including: Strawberry and Mead. I really enjoy the Mead, but being a honey based wine it is only for the sweet toothed among us.
While you may not be directly responsible for the telephone system or it's operators you may like to enquire, on my behalf, as to why Thurrock residents are ignored and treated to such an abomination of a service. Is it an unspoken directive from the ruling party in power that if residents can't get through and make enquiries/ complaint then we (the Council) can't register those enquiries/ complaints?
Several things have happened or come to light since the General Election that have demonstrated the need for political change and not just a change of administration but a change in who can and should represent us.
And what about my fellow course members? I don’t know. I suspect some of them will walk out unchanged but whatever their attitude, the facts speak for themselves;- six motorcyclists were killed in road crashes during 2011, with 17 drivers, seven passengers, 10 pedestrians and one cyclist also dying on the county’s roads. In 2011, 3,800 people were injured in collisions with 670 of those being classed as serious*. 41 deaths and 670 serious injuries! Every one a personal and family tragedy. I just don’t want to have anything to do with any of those stats.
He has had the "mould man" out as they call him, at Morrison, he came along and sprayed it, and said that he had a serious leak, from the flat above and he would report it: He didnt, so another telephone call was made, and a housing inspector was going to come out as an emergency, that was at 10am at 4.45pm he turned up but didn't ring the door to be let in, but left a card and went.
I am disappointed that no one in politics seems to recognise or wants to admit that the days of mass employment are over. Technological advances in manufacturing and production have taken away the need for massive factories employing three shifts of workers round the clock, and so there will never be the jobs created to give the all of the people of working age a job and so the ranks of the poor will always increase - no one is saying that, why not? And why are we not now thinking of ways to make everyone equal in life as a result?
My sympathies go to Martin Kerin, the Labour candidate for South Ockendon, who, despite the disgraceful conduct of Cllr Aaron Kiely and a Conservative candidate [Barry Johnson] with a proven good record as a Councillor, put up a good “fight” and only lost by a narrow margin. Congratulations Mr Johnson your return to the Council Chamber is well deserved.
Somehow, people think Labour apply what they preach, but the reality is, they are far too afraid to make big changes, to create a diplomatic revolution, to ruffle a few feathers. So they move along quietly, keeping things relatively the same, only, spending money they don't have on smaller changes people don't really want, but for the sake of change.
Further along Foyle Drive, I notice two men digging holes in the grass in Dilkes Park, I walked up to se what they were doing, and noticed that they had planted, a brown plastic tree trunk which had a sign board on it, it had a message which said, welcome to Dilkes Park!, the two men moaned that they had to work between rain showers to put the signs up, I spoke to several dog walkers, and asked them, what they thought about the new plastic tree trunks,
Despite a written reply from the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, Mr Andrew Stunell, in answer to a written Parliamentary Question asked by Thurrock MP Jackie Doyle-Price in which he states, “Damp and mould growth is a category 1 hazard. Councils are under a duty to take action in such cases”, the Belhus ward councillors, Charles and Wendy Curtis have downgraded it to a category 4 hazard.
My favourite part of going to see the Gang Show at Thameside Theatre each year is that I get to watch people I know from both Guiding and Scouting get up and give it everything they’ve got, as well as knowing that my friends are backstage helping to make it happen. I’m proud of them all, because as much as I enjoy it, I am most definitely one of those ‘out there’ who enjoys watching them ‘up there’.
