@BristolCouncil please tell me the correct process . Reported this on Fix My Street and it’s closed no further action unless I am missing something. Main tourist area , scrap bike with bits being robbed . Shall I cut the bolt and do an Edward Colston to it !

[iancbristol @poweredbynatch]

@BristolCouncil @LanhamRich11903 I will look forward to this , his head could do with a spring clean

Tagging is a disease @bristolcouncil

Before After took me 15 Minutes . Do these guys jerk off seeing their unintelligible scrawl on inanimate objects?

Do you have any plan in place to remove any of it ?

On this day 42 years ago, Viv Richards walked out at Old Trafford in 1984 with pterygium, an eye disease that made the cricket ball look like a smudged coin. Doctors had already cut into his eyes. He batted without a helmet because he thought helmets were for people who feared things & Richards feared nothing except maybe being ordinary.

West Indies were collapsing at 102 for 7. Haynes run out fot 1. Greenidge caught at 9. Gomes bowled on 4. Lloyd gone for 4. Dujon out for a duck.. Richards was on 70 something when lunch break arrived. Not a single dismissed batter in top 7 had reached double figures. He walked into dressing room & told his team that pitch was excellent. Problem was them. Then he turned to Eldine Baptiste & said, just stay. 29overs left. just hang around.

Baptiste made 26 & left. Joel Garner made 3 & left. At 166 for 9, Michael Holding walked out. Same Holding who had bruised Englishmen at this very ground 8 years ago with raw pace. Now he was a shield. Richards took 54 of the last 81 balls & scored 93 runs alone. Holding faced 27 & made 12*. They added 106 runs for 10th wicket. Still the highest in ODI history. Richards finished on 189* from 170 balls. He had made 69.48% of his team's runs.

England were chasing 273. They made 168. Same total West Indies had when Holding joined Richards. Richards also took 2 wickets because apparently one discipline was not enough.

Numbers say it was the greatest ODI innings ever. Wisden put it at top og their 100 greatest innings. But the real story is a man with damaged eyes playing like he could see the future. A man who had said no to blank cheque offers from rebel tours of apartheid South Africa twice, who had been suspended as a teenager after a riot, who learned the game in a bar owner's borrowed whites.
He made 189 runs while his teammates made excuses. And when it was done, he probably just put his bat in kit bag & asked what was for dinner.

Paul Newman. 12 pack of beer a day for decades. Chained smoked. No morning routine. No supplements. No sun gazing. No fasting. No ice baths. No journaling. Lived artistically and handsome to the ripe old age of 83.
When men were men.

@AudreySuzanne @martr101 @bristol247 At a guess… incompetence. @BristolCouncil manage the docks , everything the council does takes an age. It must be incompetence

[iancbristol @poweredbynatch]

@UTD_Anna_ John Conteh never played for United… getaway

[iancbristol @poweredbynatch]

@LanhamRich11903 @BristolCouncil It certainly is… @bristolcitycouncil time to remove this fascist groove thang unless you want me to have a go at it ?

[iancbristol @poweredbynatch]

@SkySports Fair Play 👏👏👏. @anthonygordon

[iancbristol @poweredbynatch]

@BristolCouncil Try the monument in Brandon Hill . Brandon Tower (incidentally named after Kirk Brandon of SOD and TOH) I reported this weeks ago 1 still there

[iancbristol @poweredbynatch]

@BristolCouncil It’s on nearly all of the black water tap/electrical boxes . Most of the bins - it really is not hard to find if you use your eyes - Please Keep Up

Before After. Gas Ferry Lane

[iancbristol @poweredbynatch]

@BristolCouncil This is a memorial and clearly says

F U C K the system.

Can something be done ?

[iancbristol @poweredbynatch]

Seething is an understatement. I know you are not responsible for Brandon Tower but this is a disgrace - Who do I need to report it to @BristolCouncil to get this cleaned as I know it’s not a council site. I’d go and do it myself but I know it needs doing with special care

[Bristol City Council @BristolCouncil]

Vandals are being warned that criminal damage to EBLN infrastructure on Avonvale Road is being investigated by @ASPolice

Now I know why there is a plan for Pedestrianising Park St. @BristolCouncil @carla_denyer

The pavements have become an obstacle course and yes I did replace the matting over the hole. This one is about 8ft deep at a guess. A child could fall down it.

It was a glorious golden sunrise this morning in Glastonbury. Have a fabulous Thursday everyone.

[iancbristol @poweredbynatch]

@BristolCouncil @carla_denyer Work due to start w/c 18/5

This photo was taken on the 27/5. What is the real start date ?

[iancbristol @poweredbynatch]

I saw this last week, why fix the issue down the steps when you can put a temporary barrier up and vandals can damage it… accident waiting to happen @BristolCouncil Why fix it when you can waste money repainting pavement ?

@BristolCouncil @carla_denyer I’ve put the barrier back 3 times myself it does my nut in
