  I've known for some time that there is a problem with the Teleatlas Maps (as owned by Tom Tom and used by Google Maps and others) and the M1 J10 (Kidney Wood Roundabout) and Kinsbourne Green. They seem to think that going down Airport Way, along the Lower Luton Rd, Thrales End Lane and then finally A1081. Yes I have reported it. See attached screenshot. The straight route is the public transport route using the 321 (that is a bus). So...

  Do you feel that the £57,000 scheme to improve facilities for parking bicycles, motorbikes and motor scooters is money well spent or could the money be better invested elsewhere?  There is obviously a need for provisions for cycles at the train station- during the building works cyclists had to find elsewhere to secure their bikes; there were bikes chained to all available railings extending as far as the pedestrian lights...

  It seems we all like to moan about potholes. And especially since we've had a couple of harsh winters, which have left some Harpenden streets resembling the surface of the moon. But good news is on hand, for Hertfordshire highways, who are responsible for their repair, have announced that they've been filling around 120 potholes a day since the start of the year. According to the Met Office, December 2010 was the coldest for 100 years...

  Is it just me or does anyone else out there start to think about where they're going to park the minute their chid opens a Big Space Birthday Party invite? Let's get one thing straight from the start: I'm a big fan of Big Space and have been ever since it opened.

  Am I the only person who thinks the road closures in Harpenden are getting beyond a joke. We're into week 2 of 6 of the Lower Luton Rd closure. I till don't understand the diversion signs.

I Suppose the funniest sign is the Diversion End followed by a Diversion sign 10 m latter...
