I travel a lot within the EU for work and pleasure and I can assure you I have needed my passport every time, so I agree with Mick, not sure how this works at all. I am sure there is another explanation to this story if you were to dig a bit more Glenda.

We have just come back from our holiday on Corfu. We have visited the same island and used the same hotel for years and during our trips we have obviously got to know the owners and staff very well. During a discussion recently, I asked if the current migrant situation had effected Corfu at all as I know many migrants had arrived in Kos. I was informed that the only people that normally attempt to go to Corfu are usually people from the neighbouring country of Albania. I was then asked, if I remembered one of the guys from the animation team when we were there previously, I asked which guy, to which I was informed of his name. We remembered this chap, so the conversation continued, I was told that he was there on summer season work permit from Ghana but failed to turn up to work a few months ago and just disappeared. The owner was later informed that this chap had been talking on his mobile with other people he had been in touch with in Athens for sometime and they told him to get to Athens as soon as possible and join all of the other migrants. He apparently destroyed his passport and is now in Germany along with many others! This was also confirmed by another member of the animation team that he had kept in touch with and has encouraged to do the same thing. How many other people have done this I wonder? This does not help the plight of genuine refugees and adds further doubt to those countries reluctant to take in these people, especially if they have no passports or documents.

As a result they now have to keep a log available showing details of persons employed, date of birth, passport details etc, is this not standard practice then? Where I work, they have all of my details on file, name, date of birth, address, nationality, driving licence details, passport details, national insurance number etc.

I appreciate the idea but I think we need a few more under our belt first, nothing wrong with looking back over some of things, we as a team have achieved.

Which one? lol we always sort of knew they would only get until 3am in the week but he is more than happy at the moment.

I am sure there are a few more places like this.

Thanks for the update.

I have just spoken with Tony and he is starting next weekend, Friday & Saturday until 3am.

Good so they should! Hate it when people just throw rubbish on the floor, there is no need for it.

I totally agree. From my understanding weekend opening is until 0430 and bank holiday weekends but not including bank holiday Monday. So in theory they could be open until 0430 today and tomorrow.

I asked in Tesco this evening what about self service and I was informed that you will have to ask for a bag, then pay. Bags will not be there to just help yourself too.

The government in it's drive to reduce waste have imposed a charge of 5p on carrier bags, all proceeds to go to charity.

It has taken over 3 long years but today we have our first result! At long last and after campaigning by Hereford Voice we can now all enjoy hot food until 3am at weekends! And 4.30am on Bank Holiday weekends (except Bank Holiday Monday) I spoke with Tony from the Golden Galleon sometime ago informing him that late night food applications are being relaxed and now was a good time to apply for extended hours, he did just that..

I am chuffed!! It's Monday to Thursday till 3 am, friday and Saturday until 4.30 am and any Sunday which precedes a bank holiday till 4.30. They also have to have sia registered and trained door staff from 1.30 am to close and hourly clear up of rubbish from 1.30 am and a rubbish bin.

It has taken our campaign over 3 years but today we have a result!! At long last and after a very long campaign from Hereford Voice we can now all enjoy hot food until 3am everyday and 4.30am weekends!

Great result!! At long last, thank you to all concerned, we have campaigned for a very long time for this day, glad the council and police gave way to common sense.

Yes another tick box exercise.

As of today it is unlawful to smoke in a car with anyone under the age of 18 present. https://youtu.be/5jB9zSTlvwY
