    Mundane facts about your day: Part Deux.

    I was in Sainsbury's last night and I have to admit I am glad I don't work there. Those scanners the staff use, they have a better tolerance than me as the beep went right through me.

    The Barbershops of Stafford.

    New haircut day today. This time I'm at Ali K barbers which is on the corner of Friars Road I think it is and Newport Road just on the corner by the cinema. Park just around the corner on Friars Road or is that street? you know the one, and made a dash in the rain to the barbers, when I got in...

    The Barbershops of Stafford.

    I went to Golden Cuts on Mill Street. 2 barbers, and impatient as I was I waited 10 minutes and returned to Stafford Best Barbers. Not even close to being as good as the last time I visited. That's my fault for going against my task. That said 2.36 barber shops for a town this size. Can't see...

    More Council investment in the town center

    As much as I am aware I believe the council already own the Superdrug property.

    New Housing at Radford Bank.

    That's interesting. A good friend of mine owns the land almost opposite to that and he contends with flooding annually, be brave to buy a house down there. The saving grace is that it is on the other side of the canal. Not sure how insurance providers may be with that. Still an interesting...

    The Barbershops of Stafford.

    Stafford's best barber on bridge Street. That's the name of the barbers but also lofty words. They can never be shit, they can never be less than best or it would be a case of turning up at their door and pointing to your bonce and saying well???? Anyway that's where I found myself for this new...

    This mornings fun was exacerbated by the temporary lights on Rising Brook not working.

    When I submitted a FOI request on those lights, I was met with a terse response.

    Thieves in Sainsburys car park be alert.

    If this is widespread, do you have a link to the police report so we can be prepared. Respectfully eastern European ladies could be anyone, we have lots of eastern European ladies that have made Stafford their home.

    Stafford Traffic.

    Access from Highfield Grove to Rising Brook is closed due to roadworks at the bottom. I believe there is work being carried out on drain covers or similar. So if you want to cut through, take Park Avenue instead.

    The Barbershops of Stafford.

    This week's haircut was at Stafford Town Barbers on Market Street. Obviously no parking so I'm parked up at Aldi and walked over. It's a Bank Holiday Monday so town itself was quite quiet and the barbers was extremely quiet, two barbers and zero people in there apart from me. So straight on to...

    The Barbershops of Stafford.

    There are two barbers called magic scissors, at least in Stafford. There might be others elsewhere but in Stafford we have two of the same name on the same Street. Salter Street. I went to one of them the one that is closest to Aldi (where I parked) and this is my latest haircut of the year...

    Stafford - Cultural centre of the world....

    In addition to Lee Hurst we have 2 shows to look forward to by Andrew Lawrence. Them pair, the woman off The Apprentice and Katie Price etc are not my thing at all but if they have an audience I have no issue with it. I am not attending and I am glad I don't work there.

    The Barbershops of Stafford.

    A visit to Stafford Kurdish Barbers near the old Monsoon shop. Might even be it's old premises, I am not sure but you know the place. Parked over on Sainsbury's as I had a shop to do and headed to the barbers. Straight in and in the chair at 1pm on a Sunday. Haircut exactly as I wanted it. Ears...
