Telford Live

Have seen a couple of close calls to date. Two problems are the selfish (or from what I have seen the rather overweight lazy sods) that park on the road, rather than the two car parks, behind tesco or at the church, and the lack of a proper crossing. The road becomes a bottle neck [...]

When you’re out of range of a Three transmitter, your [...]
