It’s A Balloon, Penelope …

Well, it’s a balloon that’s gone up, at any rate … !

Ummm … …

You remember I mentioned the new hotel that’s opened round the corner from me?

It’s their publicity Blimp!

They’ve got a Publicity Blimp … !

I hope it doesn’t hit by a low flying something. It doesn’t matter about what, anything low-flying isn’t going to be good!

But I’m burbling, aren’t I?

Aren’t I?

I know that one of me neighbour’s popped in the minutes from the recent residents meeting; it’d been shoved in her letter box, by mistake.

Fascinating to read.

Hmmm …

I do know that the roads have come up, again; it seems one of the neighbour’s is trying to arrange for parking permits for the actually road itself. Which’d be handy.

There’s a couple of biggies, though, seemed to have gotten a mention, though …

One was Sky+.

Several people, it seems, want it, but it would cost a hefty £2, 000 to put the necessary extra socket in each flat, and boosted amplifier for each building.

Something Circle Anglia doesn’t have the budget for.

And it’s something I know I, and one or two others, wouldn’t be able to take advantage of, I know that … ! It’s not exactly cheap, on our budgets.

So no big thing, there, as far as I’m concerned; saying that, if circumstances ever change …

Post a Comment

I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?

I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.

Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.

Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.

Thank you.
