ORCHARD FOR THE TOWN E-mail
 

ImageIf you would like to get involved in the plans for a Heritage Orchard, behind St Marys Church in South Street, please email your support. It may be you would just like to be kept up to date on progress or be more involved, like planting and maintaining the trees? It will be some months before we hopefully get the green light to go ahead but any help in this initiative would be gratefully received!
COUNCIL TAX BANDITS E-mail
 

Dick Turpin
HIGHWAY ROBBERY
In 1997 the council tax bill for a Band C property in Bridport was £618.00 now 10 years later the bill as doubled to £1264.37 an increase of OVER 100%

Has anyone who been in the same job for the last 10 years and had an increase in pay by 100%?
- I doubt it.

Have the services provided by our local authority improved by 100%? - I don’t think so.

NEW OLD PHOTOS E-mail
 

ImageHere are some new additions to our archve of images from Bridports past. Have you got any pictures from bygone days that you would like to share? Or if you have any information about the pictures published here let us know. Please remember that the copyright for these pictures belongs to their respective owners and they should not be used without prior permission.

MONORAIL MARVEL E-mail
 

ImageThe proposed Olympic monorail that is scheduled to come into service by 2012 serving stations from Bridport to Portland along the Chesil Bank has been allowed to broaden their remit to include shuttle monorails from Asker Meadows car park to the centre of town. A local councillor said it there would be less horse dung involved than in competing projects.

CULL THE GULL? E-mail
 

Herring GullIt's that time to resurrect the Seagull issue again. They screech 24/7, disassemble dustbins, befoul our cars, buildings and washing lines and are generally considered a pest. On the other side of the coin they are beautiful creatures doing what comes naturally to them. So what is to be done? Bridport Radio wants your views. If you have not already done so please register here and you can leave your comments.

Seagulls: a users guide...

SLOW GOING E-mail
 

ImageI see a Councillor Cast has recommended a 20 mph speed limit  for the whole of Bridport to the Town Council to stop boy racers speeding up and down West/East/South Streets after 11pm. The police say these should be accompanied with road humps and other 'traffic calming' measures to stop them.
All I can say is that the history of modern politics is littered with the imposition of sweeping and draconian laws that are aimed at curbing the influence of a tiny minority of wrongdoers but affect us all.
BATTY BOY COMPETITION E-mail

ImageIt’s competition time again here on Bridport Radio, not content with giving away millions of pounds worth of MikkiMugs we have delved deep into the vaults and come up with this cracker of a giveaway, some cynics among you may suggest we are just padding our content cause we ain’t nowhere near half as posh as that Marshwood Vale Magazine (free in many local outlets)  but it ain’t like that at all, we really do care for you Mr and Mrs reader!

 
CALLING TIME E-mail
 

ImageDear Sirs, re: the Boot calling time.
Palmers dont seem to understand how to run pubs. They have totally missed out on the massive interest and market for local food production, and the expectations of locals and visitors to have thriving Dorset village pubs that show off the local wares. I am not wearing rose tinted spectacles, healthy local produced food and drink is a boom industry, and is a major draw to a growing sector of our tourism.
PHOTO COMPETITION E-mail

ImageAs the blustering flush of Spring bursts across Bridport with its lusty longings, delirious daydreams and spent piles of cherry blossom quivering their last in the gutters – one can’t but help think: To capture a snapshot of nature at it’s best, That, my friends, is a challenge worth pursuing. Being helplessly at the beck and call of such seasonal stirrings Bridport Radio would like to declare,“The inaugral  Bridport Radio photographical competition is open for entries!”. The twin yinging and yanging themes being: “The Beauty of Nature” &/or “Hideous Desecrations”
