    Fed up with nuisance calls?

    Colin James
    By Colin James,

    Mobile phone users can opt out of nuisance calls by text message for the first time from today.

     

    Blocked.jpg

     
    The "text-to-register" service allows members of the public to add their number to the "do not call" database of the Telephone Preference Service (TPS).
     
    Mobile users can sign up by texting "TPS" followed by their number to 78070.
     
    The TPS should send a text reply confirming the number has been added to its database.
     
    The service may take 28 days to become fully effective but customers should notice a reduction in unwanted sales and marketing voice calls within days.
     
    It is illegal for organisations to make unsolicited calls to numbers registered with the TPS unless they get consent.
     
    Communications regulator Ofcom said only 48% of people familiar with the TPS are aware that they can register a mobile number, compared with 88% for landlines - meaning only 2.9 million UK mobiles are registered.
     
    John Mitchison, head of the TPS, said: "Rogue callers operate illegally and against the interests of ordinary people.
     
    "Texting will make it easier for people to register their mobile numbers on the TPS, which is the only official no-call list, and help us stamp out rogue callers once and for all by giving the Information Commissioner more ammunition to prosecute these cases."
     
    Baroness Neville Rolfe, the minister responsible for data protection, said: "Nuisance calls are incredibly intrusive and can cause significant distress, particularly to elderly and vulnerable members of society.
     
    "This new service from the TPS and Ofcom will help protect people with mobile phones, making it easier for them to register via text and opt out of the call list."

    What to do if you get a spam text message:
     
    Recent Which? research revealed that only 1 in 10 people are aware that you can report spam texts to your provider using a free text service.

    Widemarsh St pedestrianised hours

    Bilbobobby
    By Bilbobobby,

    As you know traffic is prohibited from entering or leaving the High Town side of Widemarsh St., between 1030 & 1630 daily. We all also know the council failed to put in place traffic regulations to prevent/manage parking at all times.

    So what's happening

    At great expense the road layout was upgraded with a defined road and footpaths. Now mornings involve cars and delivery vehicles filling the delivery bays and straddling the footpaths. This is further compounded with builders vans parking on the footpaths all day whilst working at the new fish restaurant.

    Car owners have caught on quite quickly to beat the parking costs and parking all day for free. Cyclists ride along the street (road and footpath) in both directions all day.

    So how long will it be before harm is caused to pedestrians through driver disregard and no enforcement.

    Worcester has a similar problem in The Shambles with an elderly lady crushed by a lorry last year. The council there are undertaking a public consultation to see what the local needs are

    Who is the enforcement authority and who will take responsibility and sort out the obvious dangers that I feel will get worse

    Debate!

    By Colin James,

    You may have noticed the scaffolding has gone back up on the recently completed apartments in Beattie Avenue. I have been informed that there were problems with the installation of the roof and as a result a whole new roof replacement is now required, worrying to say the least.

    New county nature reserve opening next to Moccas Park

    The view from Moccas Hill Wood

    FAMILIES, walkers and wildlife enthusiasts from across Herefordshire are being invited to the opening of a new county nature reserve.

    Natural England has extended its invitation to attend Moccas Hill Wood on Saturday, May 21 which will be opened for the first time in living memory.

    Those attending will have the chance to explore and learn more about the wildlife, landscape and history of the hilltop site, which is adjacent to the Moccas Park National Nature Reserve.

    The free event will begin at 10am, and will end by 3pm. Experts will be on hand to offer guided walks where visitors can learn about the unique features of the site, or explore the site at their own pace on the family-friendly discovery trail.

    After years under plantation forestry, the site is being restored to open wood pasture using designs based on Capability Brown, and ecological principles.

    "This is a great opportunity for local people to explore an amazing new site and enjoy stunning views across the Herefordshire hills and Black Mountains," said Natural England's senior reserve manager, Saul Herbert.

    "But it's much more than that. We are starting work to replant the site with seedlings from the majestic veteran trees at Moccas Park National Nature Reserve, to re-create the open woodland that once covered this area.

    "We hope lots of families and wildlife enthusiasts alike will join us to learn more about this site and its history, enjoy the new discovery trail and celebrate returning this stunning hilltop to its former glory."

    Parking is at Moccas Park National Nature Reserve, which is on Pentre Lane in Bredwardine. A free minibus service will run all day to and from the site. Catering and toilets will also be available.

    National Nature Reserves are some of the finest sites in England for wildlife and geology. They have been established to protect and manage the special wildlife habitats, species and geological features that occur there.

    These features are of national and often international importance with many NNRs providing important areas for study and research.

     


    Eurovision Song Contest Fixed?

    Colin James
    By Colin James,

    Well I predict the UK will win the 'Eurovision Song Contest' because they want to keep us in Europe and it's always been fixed in my view, voting has not started yet so lets see how we do...


    I.S.I.S.

    bobby47
    By bobby47,

    He's and angry young chap isn't he! Bloody Hell! Abu Baki al -Baghdadi. What a nasty bit of work he is. My God! He definitely wasn't breast fed was he. You don't see the lads staggering up the street with a carrier bag full of ale shouting, 'we're off to Baghdadi's for a good bloody laugh'.

    Good grief what with the beheadings, the stonings and now the bloody crucifixions he's the sort you want to keep well away from. If he comes up my path demanding I convert, I'll open the bloody door, throw me Scratchings to the floor, embrace him, throw myself on the Prayer Mat and with my tiny pocket compass I'll be facing bloody East screaming, 'Give me the blood. Give me the Healing. Allahu Akbar'. I'm converting. You'd be a fool not to.

    Bloody religious zealots. Every bloody time they fire off a bloody bullet or a bomb or slice some poor souls head off its, 'Allahu Akbar'. Bloody Hell. Mind, when half a bloody mountain falls off, flattens the village and concusses thousands, they don't shout, Allahu Akbar then do they? No they bloody don't.

    If half a bloody mountain fell off and hit me on the bloody head that's the last thing I'd be shouting. More like, 'you miserable toss pot. After all the bloody praying we've done this is the last thing we expected from you Allah'

    And of course you've got the last remnants of New Labours social engineering gang who's mantra is, 'Dont Tolerate Diversity. Celebrate it'. I'd like to see what they'd say if al-Baghdadi tipped up at their abode with a bloody sharp knife and a bag of rubble. Let them celebrate that and tell me how happy they are knowing that God approved of their horrific death.

    Bloody religious zealots. We've got Bush and Blair and they've got Abu Baki al-Baghdadi. Well he doesn't scare me. Never has and never will and i'll be damned if I change my daily routine simply because I've just insulted him. He can do his worst as far as I'm concerned.

    And the poor Muslim British! My God, how they must hurt inside knowing that their religion is being associated with a complete headbanger who was never given the opportunity to suck upon his Mothers breast. If ever there was an argument that breast feeding was good for you then this is it.

    I'd say to all the Moms out there who are heavily pregnant and near on ready to lactate their motherly milk, 'get your new born baby breast fed as quick as you can.'
