Since the ditch was filled in at the site, there has been a build up of field drainage there. The men doing the work were warned of potential problems but chose to ignore these warnings. The road has been flooded by the chicane for several days and when it freezes at night it is precarious to say the least....

Hello all NCC Highways were out yesterday to check this problem. The drain was jetted but it appears to be blocked due to root damage. A job has been booked for a gang to attend and dig out.

For the past week there has been yet another water leak on Bunwell road. I have waited this long to post this as the last time I reported a leak to the men working on site, I was told it had nothing to do with me, and they carried on filling in the ditch. Not very helpful to say the least! I am at a loss to guess wha...

Here's a strange request, does anybody have or know of a quince bush with fruit on that we could have to make jelly?

Can Wisp users in the village that have been experiencing recent problems with poor speeds please run the odd speed test over the next 3 days. Certain changes were made yesterday at 4pm and I would be interested to learn of what users are now getting.

It would be nice if the new residents could follow the rules of the road within the village. Today I had to sharply break for a black Mercedes for a new resident on the Bunwell estate.q

As we drove through the chicane today, towards the pub, we saw a new road has been laid beside the tall hedge, right opposite the chicane.

Why isn't the playing field being used more by clubs? It is available for clubs and was used for many sporting activities previously. We are lucky to have this area set aside for recreational use and many people enjoy the open space there.

Rix this morning on 700 litres were 38.93p per litre, whilst Goff came in at 35.95p. If you are a little low at the moment it might be worth topping up the tank and a few of us get...
