Strange kerbed thing appearing out of the ground in the middle of the road on Meadows Avenue!
Could be a new bus stop but it is taking up one side of the road and its opposite the junction at the first cul-de-sac.
Anyone help?

Maybe for the kids to cross the road to the park?

SmithD just rung the bell and won a coconut
Obviously no one reads the Courier

Saw a pic of, and an article about, the old stop and the new one in Fridays edition.

Pete Reek - I normally read the Courier thoroughly - went through it again and still can't see any article or photo about the Meadows. Just about the bus stop on the Milknowe. You sure?

SmithD wrote that she thought it was for the kids using the park to cross the road safely.
I answered in a positive manner, but perhaps using coconuts as a reference was not the wisest thing to do.
Someone else enquired about the nib at Millknowe and that was what my answer involving the Courier was based on.
Since I had left quite a large space between the two sections covering my replies I assumed that anyone reading it would realise it was about seperate issues. Who is a "Silly Billy"?
What must we never do?
We must never assume!
We can play peever an eat monkey nuts, but never ever assume.
I stand before you humbled that such a high ranking officer from the forum has scanned the local paper for references to one of my statements but to no avail.
As that famous lady historian Anne R Soul once said: " Don't sook boilings if you have the Whooping Cough"
I don't know what she meant either, but I'm sure she was correct.
