Strood Station's Uninvited (Traveller) Guests Leave

Following a call from an alert resident a few weeks ago who had noticed a gate had been broken down and a building broken into, I alerted Council Officers to investigate. When the Warden arrived that morning, Travellers were in situ. The site was actually owned by Railtrack, but the building concerned had been some months before set alight and was not a safe place to be.

Strood station’s surrounding area (riverside), is not the most welcoming sites at the best of times and until the re…

Parking Scam in Chatham

A word of warning for all. Our car was parked in Staples in Chatham on a recent Sunday evening when the shop was shut. A company called G24 then sent a "Charge Certificate" demanding payment of £95 for a parking violation. This stated that I was liable to pay as the registered keeper.

Legally, any claim which they have is contractual and not criminal under the Road Traffic Act. As such, it is only the driver or person who was in control of the car at the time who has a potential liabili…

My Christmas Gift to the People of Medway

There is so much negativity around Medway from some quarters, especially the "Medway knockers" (Councillor Alan Jarrett's name for the LibDems), that I thought we all need a bit of a boost, especially at this season of the year. I have therefore collected together a selection of short videos on my blog that remind us of some of what is already happening right here on our doorsteps. There is so much mo…

It's Contagious!

This blogging business, that is.

I recently created a "Blogger/Google" account, to show that what I wrote on such sites as Iain Dale and Guido Fawkes was really from me -- there have been forged posts purporting to come from other contributors. This account creation was a fairly elaborate and lengthy procedure, so I thought I might as well gain more benefit for all that effort than merely having a…
