Christmas Special Edition
I would like to wish every single resident of our Council Ward, a very Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year. I will be lucky enough to be spending my Christmas with my fiancée and our family in our family home together for the first time. I very much hope you have the opportunity to have a great time with family and friends. Especially if the weather turns bad, please look out for your elderly relatives and neighbours.
A Christmas present
If, like me, you’re of a certain age, this will bring a smile to your face. It does for me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCQP8WGeGuk
Do you need more recycling bags for Christmas?
If you think you might run out of recycling bags over the Christmas period, you can pick up some more from our local libraries.
All Bedford Borough Libraries will be closed on Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day.
On Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve each library will open as follows:
Bedford Central Library will open with staff from 11am – 3pm then remain open in LibraryPlus until 6pm.
Kempston Library will not open.
Wootton Library will be in LibraryPlus from 9am – 5pm.
Normal hours resume from Wednesday the 2nd January.
Ill health
I want to thank all the local residents who sent me their kind wishes for a speedy recovery from my recent bout of ill-health in November. I suffered multiple fractures in my left wrist after tripping over a paving slab on a private garden whilst delivering leaflets on the Abbey Fields estate. I then suffered an allergic reaction to the latex splint I was given after the plaster cast was taken off. I do want to put on public record, my grateful thanks to all the South Wing staff involved in getting my left wrist back up to delivery capability….
Local Issues:
Since my last Elstow, Stewartby and Kempston Hardwick Echo, here are some of the local issues I have progressed, in some cases with the valued help and support of the relevant Parish Council. |
