  1. Well you must of been typing the same time as me Biomech lol They have already opened but what I was surprised to see is that they have opened a pet section (Pet Hut) right next door to 'pets at home' and I am wondering why the landlords of the Brook Retail Park have allowed this and not protected their current tenants, if I were 'pets at home' I would not be very happy to be honest, I know competition is healthy but this is a bit much don't you think? I took this photo over the weekend.

  4. A collapsed tree from the severe winds experienced this week.
  5. I took some photographs of the floods while I was out and about today, here are a few from the Bishops Meadows
  6. Hmm, I was out walking along the riverside today and noticed barbed wire all the way along the side fencing of a public footpath, so how come they can get away with it here then?
  7. Storm damaged brought these fences down at the back of the Three Counties Hotel last night, notice the fence missing further along too. I contacted the hotel at 7am this morning to notify them and also to draw their attention to the barbed wire and heavy piece of wood dangling which is swinging around dangerously in the wind, it is now 11am and nobody has even looked at it yet.
  8. Welcome Pete to HV
  9. Here are a few more pictures (I did not want to add these to the first post as it's the first post that appears on the front page)
  10. I notice that work has started on the demolition of the flats in Beattie Avenue and St Francis Saviour Church. I also notice that the demolition contractors are DES who are based in Henley in Arden Warwickshire, was there not a suitable local Hereford company able to carry out these works?

  12. Further to our emails Gareth, Welcome to HV. I like this idea and if I can help in anyway please just ask, I have lived in Belmont for over 23 years now but I am a Herefordian and I was brought up in Stanberrow Road, Redhill, just along the road from Chris Adcocks so not far from you! There are plenty of good members on here that I am sure will offer to help where they can.
  13. I am never entitled to any benefit, EVER, even when I was a single parent, apparently it has something to do with the fact that I work and earn too much money? If I had loads of kids or was overweight, disabled, on drugs or an alcoholic or had been on the dole for over 10 years or looking after someone with any of the above I may have qualified
  14. This scoot system has NEVER worked!
  15. I agree entirely and I am not alone YourHerefordshire @YourHereford1 Follow It must be so frustrating for hot food outlets in Hereford to close at 1.30am. Losing huge amounts of income due to Herefordshire Council. 6:04 PM - 2 Feb 2014
  16. I downloaded '12 Days A Slave' today in 4 minutes I pay BT £26 per month plus line rental, you get BT Sport included with that.
  17. I struggled for years with Broadband, my story and struggle back then even ended up as a feature in The Times but 10 years later I have Infinity and speeds 50mb + I could not manage on such low speeds Jon My speeds this morning while downloading an Apple update via wifi, I can achieve better speeds via ethernet cable obviously
  18. Strangely enough I had similar thoughts...
  19. Okay folks please calm it down as it's getting a little personal now which is totally unnecessary. We clearly do not all share the same views and our opinions will differ, but we should equally respect each others whether we agree or not. Personally, I think the council have a duty to keep the city clean and I must admit the doorway at the Chadds old shop and the passageway alongside McDonalds is pretty bad. Maybe one of our Councillors can point us in the right direction on whom we should report this too?
  20. Police at Hereford investigating a robbery of cash from a woman on Wednesday 15 January have issued an image of a man they want to talk to. The woman was robbed in an alleyway by the Wye Inn pub in Holme Lacey Road. Hereford at approximately 12.45pm. A man approached the 20 year old woman and asked for a cigarette. As the victim got a cigarette for him he grabbed a freezer bag from her pocket which contained cash. When the woman tried to grab the cash back the man struck her. He then ran off along the footpath into FC Morgan Close. The man police want to talk to in connection with the robbery is described as a white man, aged between 40 and 45 with a dark moustache. Detective Sergeant Tim Powell of Hereford CID said. “Fortunately this woman had no serious injuries. We need to trace this man as soon as possible. There are a number of industrial units on the nearby retail park and this man could have come from there. If you have any information on the identity of this man or if you think you saw him please contact officers at Hereford by dialling 101. All calls will be treated in confidence”. Callers who wish to remain anonymous can also ring independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555111. Full Details Here
  21. Excellent! The more publicity you can get the better, well done.
  22. Well I would tend to agree with you but to be honest, Indian, Chinese are nothing like their native countries either but it's nice to be given a choice in Hereford for once, right now there is hardly a choice.
