BT's graham Contactor replace telegraph pole yesterdy, no warning to residents. On the day workers announce phone/internet will be down 'up to 12hrs'. 24 hours later still no internet, 24 homes affected. visit to investigate: next Tues: 'prioritised' service apparently.

Now a decision has been taken regarding Smart Motorways, I'd love to see all governments, other bodies and individuals agree to act to improve road safety on *all* roads in line with the Safe System. linkedin.com/posts/kate-car…

When you find a battery to mains converter your beloved dad made for his beloved minidisc player using a bit of a battery and a phono connector, and make what looks like a tiny incendiary device. 13 years gone and never forgotten.

Office Rail &Road review National Highways today orr.gov.uk/search-news/na…, safety data excluded, but you can read most recent safety report orr.gov.uk/sites/default/…. including complexity of stopped vehicle detection. Not perfect, but a substantive achievement by all involved.

I've been touched by suicide personally & professionally, prevention is now part of my job (suicide outnumbers road death 4:1!) . Please support this amazing charity. On behalf of those in need, and those who would be bereaved without this, thank you. samaritanscommunity.enthuse.com/ccp/52ebf/fund…
