  • Protect the Ancient Rollright Stones from Road Expansion
    Protect the ancient Rollright Stones from road expansion To: Oxfordshire & Warwickshire County Councils At a recent meeting of Oxfordshire County Council, the cabinet member responsible for transport endorsed the idea of re-routing HGV traffic from Chipping Norton along the Rollright Road. We call on you to take the initiative to rule out immediately upgrading the road through the Rollright Stones for HGVs, but also to initiate traffic calming measures and ban non-local HGVs from that road. Why is this important? The Rollright Stones have stood high on the boundary between what is now Oxfordshire and Warwickshire for more than five and a half thousand years. Today they remain an important landmark and a place of gentle pilgrimage for many people seeking both a spiritual connection with our landscape and a place of quiet enjoyment and thoughtfulness. The peace of the Rollright stones is now under threat from proposals to turn the quiet road that runs beside it into a major route for Heavy Goods Vehicles to bypass Chipping Norton. We need your support to convince local planners to think again and to protect the peace of the Stones now and in the future. Visit https://www.rollrightstones.co.uk to learn more about this magnificent monument but please, sign this petition to protect them NOW! PETITION: Whilst we understand the context of addressing the HGV traffic and air quality issues in Chipping Norton, the Rollright Road is a narrow C road entirely unfit for HGV traffic, or for upgrading to a full trunk road. The option has been examined

  • Ragchew November 2016
    RAGCHEW NOVEMBER 2016 From the Editor The recent death of Jean Alexander who played the part of Hilda Ogden, the formidable wife of Stan Ogden played by Bernard Youens in the ITV soap opera “Coronation Street” reminded me of the time many years ago when the Gloucester Amateur Radio Society (as it then was) had it's own Stan and Hilda, in this case Stan Cook G3RNU and his wife Hilda. In those days we met in a room above the RAFA Club in Spa Road which for a time was also the venue for our occasional Skittles Social evenings. Now Stan was one of nature's gentlemen who wouldn't say “boo” to a goose and Hilda could be a bit domineering. At busy times Hilda could often be found serving behind the bar at the RAFA club and so it was on one occasion when we were having one of our Skittles bashes. The evening was in full flow and with a few drinks inside him, dear old Stan could be quite loquacious. And so it was that a group of us were around the bar with Stan in full flow when all of a sudden Hilda exploded “Yak, bloody yak that's all you do with this lot and when you're at home not a peep from you”. I can't recall who was more embarrassed – us or Stan!!!!! I think that was probably the evening too when we almost blotted our copy book with the RAFA Club because of our raucous singing and chanting which took the form of a lusty rendition of “Why Was He Born So Beautiful” to anyone who scored a duck with all three balls.
