Merry Christmas & A Happy New Beer

Thursday, December 22nd, 2011 by blastu2

Well… the year has flown, and it’s that time of year again when the lights go up all around the village – making it all that much more pleasant for us all to enjoy (spent the weekend putting ours on display around the garden).

Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year ahead too!

Steve

Editors Note:
Steve also emailed me with information about the website for The Barn Owl at Kingsway and how – if you visit that website and sign up – Marston’s will send you a voucher for a FREE DRINK; which he asked me to pass on… (Cheers Steve)!

Whilst I’m here, I would also like to take this opportunity to say:

MERRY CHRISTMAS NEIGHBOURS…
AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR FOR 2012

From Angelina, Clive and all the family.

Travel Plan Questionnaire

Wednesday, December 14th, 2011 by Ruth

Hopefully you have all received a travel plan questionnaire by now.  If not please go to www.rslht.co.uk and click on the Kingsway Residents link to complete a questionnaire or contact us on 07530-527514 for a paper copy. Alternatively you can pick one up from Badhams Pharmacy which is also a drop off point.

It is really important for you all to try and improve your links to the outside world!  This could be improved cycle/walking routes, more frequent buses (further into Kingsway), links to trains etc.  It gives you the opportunity to voice your opinion on the subject in order for change to happen. We need a good return from you to make an impact though.

Quedgeley Urban Village Ltd (the developers) and Gloucester County Council are sponsoring this initiative.  It will become an annual event so we will have to ask the same questions again to continue the sustainable travel initiative.

On behalf of RSL Highways and Transportation.

Recycling Box Lids (Litter Problems Cont’)

Sunday, December 4th, 2011 by barker77

Just a post following on from the previous thread regarding litter problems:

I believe that the majority of the litter is from recycling boxes that don’t have lids. Either because the clips have broken off (as mine have and have been replaced by The Council), or by owners who don’t use them, because they have slightly too much recycling for one box for example, so can’t use a lid, or because someone else has stolen the lid to replace their broken one.

I don’t know what other peoples opinions of this are but I have emailed Andrew.Partis@gloucester.gov.uk and let him know of the problem.

The more people who complain the better as it might help The Council to see that there is a big problem with the design of these leading to litter problems that could be easily solved.
