Not exactly awash with traders maybe six at best, whether that's because word hasn't got round about the opening or traders have given the town the old heave ho remains to be seen, I know what I'd put my money on.

I haven't been in the Oak in donkeys years, I remember it was a decent pint but it always looked like the bar scene from Star Wars.
I wish them luck.
Is it actually open now?

I'm ok now though thanks everyone, still bruised but didn't need to return to A&E as the Dr said I might.
I walked up to Ashover Rock on Friday ( not sure how I managed that with out rolling back down though
After that we trekked through the Blue bell wood. I surprised myself as didn't ache the day after either.

Politics / Re: Donald Trump
« Last post by Sorastro on March 20, 2025, 08:17:44 PM »One big realisation has come out of the past few days,
With Starmer ramping up the rhetoric over increasing the defence budget and getting our armed forces "battle ready" is the sad truth that over the past 14 years or so the Tories have depleted our armed forces to such an extent we are no longer in a position to defend ourselves let alone help another nation out.
What the N.A.T.O. countries need to do is beat Trump at his own game, what he is planning for Ukraine by taking over their power plants etc in order to "protect" Ukraine is for N.A.T.O. countries to do it first. Let European countries take over Ukraine, by possibly buying the country {temporarily} if you will and flood the country with people from the E.U.
