21 March 2020 - Buses and a new information stream
Dear all,
Apologies for yet another newsbite, but it’s the only way I can reach my target. For every 100 Newsbites or one million words, whichever comes first, I am credited with tuppence. This means that that after just seventeen thousand Newsbites I am allowed free entry into a Mission Hall Coffee Morning. I’m sure you agree that’s worth aiming for.
But I digress.
As from Monday, 23 March, First Wessex will be operating a Saturday service across all routes on Monday to Fridays until further notice. This means of course that there will be no buses into the village as from Monday.
Also Tony Ferrari contacted me to say that the council publishes local information and he wondered if some of this might be useful via Newsbites. I already receive some data from the Council – don’t know how, must have signed up for it years ago - and you may get the same. But for people that don’t I’ll precis (as the Council can go on a bit) what they and Tony send me and let everyone know. The latest relates to bin collections, but it merely says that they will do their best to keep up the present service, but that the strict recycling rules may be relaxed in the near future.
And that lot probably earned me a sip of tea!
Stay safe and well
Chris
