Flytipping, 14th February
Tenant’s flytipping, isn’t it about time the landlord educated them. This is not only an eyesore, it’s a health and safety issue. I was visiting a friend in the area & evidently any complaints that are made to you are blatantly dismissed. it’s revolting, maybe worth bringing it to the attention of the local paper, historic flytipping and landlord turning a blind eye.

Pot hole again., 31st January
I have no hit another pot hole. this time i would like to claim it back as it's not becoming ridiculous. this pot hole is massive and also dangerous. caused me to drive very slow on a speed limited road of 50 to then pull over where is safe to sort the issue. i have now had to pay for another new tyre which has now put me in a very bad position regarding cost of living. i now will struggle to reach to cover my bills due to having to buy a new tyre when the tyre which was damaged was relatively new. please sort this very fast as i would hate for this to happen to someone else.

Non disabled car parked diagonally across disabled parking bays, 17th September
Yesterday morning I saw (and noted the plate for) a black Mini parked in disabled bay without a badge on display. It was also parked diagonally. I myself do have a blue badge and came back from the shop to see them blocking the only spare disabled bay. The car park was entirely full at the time and people were even parked on the road outside the village centre but had anyone with a disability needed to park they would have been blocked by someone using a designated space.
