I need people that are local to MK to let me know of ANY building projects going on within the Town that you know of please, For a new website I’m working on.

It can be anything from a new block of flats to the remodelling of a roundabout, I just need to know what it is and where.

Wolverton Park… The most connected estate?!

Wolverton Park has to be, quite possibly, one of the most well connected estates in Milton Keynes for Public Transport, What with Wolverton Rail Station being right beside the development, and at least 7 bus routes passing nearby, You must be able to get to every part of MK. It’s one of the few places that has direct links to the Open University! If you need to get a quote from Ashburnham Insurance then this is the place to be!

Bus routes that pass by the estate on Stratford road:

Route 5 – New Bradwell – Bradville – Heelands – City & Rail Stn – Xscape – Oldbrook – Hospital – Mount Farm – Bletchley – Lakes Est

Route 7 – New Bradwell – Stantonbury – Linford Wood – Conniburrow – City & Rail Stn – Oldbrook – Coffee Hall – Hospital – Stadium:MK/ASDA/IKEA – Bletchley – Fenny Stratford/Newton Longville

Route 7A – New Bradwell – Great Linford – Neath Hill – City & Rail Stn – Shenley Lodge – Furzton – Beltchley

Route 33 – City & Rail Stn – Havensham – Castlethorpe – Hanslope – Northampton

Bus routes that start at Wolverton Agora, just a few minutes walk away:

Route 4/4A – Stony Stratford – Kiln Farm – Stacey Bushes(4A) – Heelands(4A) – Two Mile Ash(4) – Great Holm(4) – City & Rail Station – Springfield – Hospital – Whaddon Way – Bletchley

Route 6A – Greenleys – Blue Bridge – Bradville – Heelands – City & Rail Stn – Hospital – Furzton – Tattenhoe – Bletchley

Route 12 – Greenleys – Hodge Lea – Stacey Bushes – Bradwell – City & Rail Station – Willen Lake – Kents Hill – Open University – Caldecotte

"You can get a bus through there!"

This is the end of the School day at Two Mile Ash School, It’s always like this at half 3.

The cars on the left of the picture are actually parked, with the right hand side being the queue of traffic behind the bus.

As you can see, the bus in the picture is waiting to go, But cant because theres a load of parked cars infront of him and he can’t get past, and the same for me in my bus….. So we sat there for 15 minutes and had a chat lol.

Once he could finally go, some of the car’s pulled up along side of me and asked why i wasn’t moving as I was apparantly “blocking it all up”…. Clearly they can’t see the parked cars or the fact that the bus is around 30 odd foot long and can’t just nip between the gap. Lol @ some people, They really don’t have a clue!

If only we’d been sitting 100ft further down the road I could’ve jumped out the bus, and popped through the front door of me house for a sandwich lol.

Why?!

Why do people think they can get on my bus and make hurtful comment about my Psoriasis/Skin?!

Why do I take these comments to heart and end up getting myself into a state over them?!

Why do I put up with all the headaches, Felling sick, Slow killing of my liver and all the other side effects these tablets bring in the quest for Clear skin?!

Why, after having Psoriasis for 16 years, Have I still not come to terms with the fact I’ll have it for the rest of my life?!

Why can’t I accept that, at the moment, This is the best my skin is ever going to be?!

Why, even with a number of friends saying they are here for me, Can I not actually tell them what’s upset me?!

Why do I continue to bother with this job, When this same thing happens every few months?!

Why, Lately, Do I seem to be so depressed/emotional (tablets again) and crying over nothing?!

 

Why me?!

Basically, WHY?!

 

(I don’t expect people to comment, I just needed to get that out there! Will probably delete this later)


Whaddon Way gets extra buses

Well it looks like the Lakes Estate and Whaddon Way areas of Bletchley are to get a few extra buses during the day, If the Councils website is anything to go by in the shape of Route 44 by On a Mission coaches…

council44

Now, Going by the councils routing details on this page I “THINK” that this is the way the route is going to go…

(Please remember this all I think it’s going to be, I don’t 100% know as it’s not been released anywhere that I know of)

 

route44

The rumour is that it’s going to be a flat single fare of

Well, The plan to blog from Duxford didn’t really happen as I struggled to get a decent 3G signal all day (Thanks o2!), But I’ve managed to find one picture online of us arriving on our bus.

(Thanks must go to professional Matt for leaving his coke can in the windscreen lol)

I’ll add some of the silly pictures I took later.
