Lost and Found
I found an instrument in a case on Melbourne Street just after Christmas…it was left on a concrete block by the fence along the old builders yard.
Is it yours? do you know who it might belong to? Leave a post on here…

The deep freeze has held off, the snow has packed up nicely, it crunches and sounds delicious underfoot. The trees are frosted with snowfall like Clinton Cards wannabees. What’s happened to my native grouchiness? Merry Christmas one and all and may the new year bring you joy. It’s hard to avoid the Clinton cliches but I mean it most sincerely. Happiness, comfort and content to you all.
This from the horses mouth (the lady that runs the place with her husband) …
Well, a happy Christmas to you all. Snow, we do snow, crunched down into black ice so you canβt depend upon your feet. Just laugh off your cracked hip bone while you slip slide away to Ravelβs Bolero. I saw that Jamie Oliver fellah on the TV the other day, did an advert filmed in Heb Square for Marks and Sparks or Sainsburys or Tescos. I know not which. His mum and dad were in there somewhere. Thereβs nothing that little whore wonβt do for TV money.
…are bringing their out-bloody-rageous fast ‘n’ bulbous jazz from hell to the 3 Wise Monkeys (formerly Pulse), Water Street, Todmorden this Friday 18th December. Come along and listen if you like.

After visiting my home town after a few years , i have to say the brig looks Shabby and the locals get shabbier. all the females have muffin tops and with the exeption of the odd person, nobody has any dress sense.
Why dont the locals pick a spot and clean it up, trim some hedges, rinse down some green alge , try to dress smarter and smile a bit more.
There was a few nice beers to be had but no eye candy whilst drinking it , sort it out Slackers

Long term Hebden Bridge resident seeks 1 or 2 bedroom house to let. Working/non smoking/no pets. I’m looking to get out of the bottom of the valley. Heptonstall, Pecket Well and Old Town spring to mind but anywhere up is good really. Bottom of the valley considered for the right house. Doesn’t need to be so close to Hebden either. Just leave a reply here, I’ll keep checking.
Cheers folks!
