Default Staffordshire - Worst County?

Staffordshire has come last in Country Life's 'Best County' Survey. Find out what went wrong.

Where's Kinver?

Sounds the sort of place PB would pick. Got to give him full marks for consistantcy.
It'll gives him plenty to whinge about when he's at home in his dark dingy hovel trying to work out if he's got enough to pay his gas and electricity bills.

New neighbours?

Plans submitted for new Wolverhampton Airport include details of flight paths and holding patterns, which show that the environments of Kinver, Bridgnorth, Stourbridge, and even Bewdley will be affected as large jet passenger planes fly overhead every few minutes.

Great just like Perth love to wave to the planes here it passes the time.
Must do the lotto more chance of winning that then this bollocks getting the go ahead, but beats train spotting more fun.
Must put me name down for a job these airports are good payers plus home prices would double.

Where to pee in Kinver, in the street?

As far as known, the only toilets currently open are those in the main High Street car park, behind the Sizzler Spice restaurant. These have been vandalised on many occasions, and may well be closed when you get there.

Male/Female/Disabled.

Note - these toilets are locked at dusk.

Drunks in Kinver.

Join the fight against crime and get a glass of lemonade.

Kinver police are appealing for community spirited volunteers to help clamp down on anti social youths and speeding motorists.

Village beat bobby Dean Colley wants special constables to patrol the village to enforce its alcohol ban and catch drivers out with a mobile speed gun.

PC Colley said: "There are a number of initiatives I want to work on and special constables could play a huge part in these.

"Now that summer is approaching we are expecting more youths to be hanging around the village and we have the drink ban to enforce. Also, speeding is an issue, so we could make more use of the speed laser.

"If there are residents who want to serve the community, it's an interesting way for them to do that."

Special constables have the same powers as regular policemen and receive full training in return for their efforts.

Anyone interested can attend a community open day at Kinver fire station, Fairfield Drive, on Saturday.

Volunteer firefighters are also being recruited at the event from 10am until 2pm.

The Safer Staffordshire Community Open Day will also give residents a chance to discuss all aspects of security and personal safety, and to get property, including horse tack, security marked.

Free refreshments will be served.

Under worked bastards send the buggers out to Perth about time they had a real job , coppers get paid good money to serve lemonade .
The soft sods need an education about what crime is , WA is fast becoming top class in this field must try and get an exchange going these guys have gone rusty.
