After some reminders on LinkedIn Iβve realised that itβs 10 years ago today since I last had a proper job. Self Employment all the way for the last decade. Thanks to all who helped in the early days. Never say never but no plans to change anything π€π».
Happy Birthday young man, have some π¦π¦
βitβs never too early for Stoutβ as nobody once said.
Kerb nerds & local history in one post you say?

In this instance something happened to the driver. But in a photo nothing shows up more despite all our campaigning this section of Preston Road is a mess. The 1960s fencing (safety hazard), the yellow paint, excess speeds. The kids in the background deserve better, theyβve told us they want better

Fletcher just quietly telling the truth about whatβs going on with roadworks.
Funny the way that these retired men all come out of the woodwork to chuck rocks when a woman makes it to the top of the civil service. Shocked I am, shocked. I hear sheβs excellent BTW.
Loving the the news today, Happy Birthday ππ«π«π«π«π«
Over the years have heard horrible tales of traffic collisions particularly from our neighbours up the coast between Cullercoats and Whitley Bay. Can't guarantee that this is over but based on last year we are off to a great start.

No drama, no chasing headlines, and not forgetting that this is a place where the community wants children to be looked after as well as the concerns of adults.
Thereβs been a lot of talk the last few days, together with some sloppy journalism, about βParking in Tynemouthβ
Our priorities:
β’ Stop Dangerous Parking near our schools
β’ Put people first in our village centre
β’ Efficient & rational management of our streets, be it trees, parking, speeds, anything
Watched this just now, one shot through windscreen, two shots fired through the passenger window straight into this poor woman. Just donβt know what to say really, imagine a paramilitary force showing up in your town & gunning someone down like this?
Thereβs some key things in there redoing the current awful guidance on reducing traffic speed & beginnings of a Safe Systems Approach, new MfS as well
