I AM walking down Newnham Street, Bedford and spot new signage to a café in the street. Sounds tasty.
 
No doubt they are fed to you in cups.

YOU can decide whether Bedford Borough Council has given up on filling potholes in the town – but it looks like they have been creating extra ones where they have removed a bollard.
 
Do you think they’ve got a camera hidden somewhere to get some snatch pics of unaware bus users getting their foot stuck to send off to You’ve Been Framed? Well, that’s one way to make some extra dosh.
 
WHILE one of our hacks was in court today a very serious argument broke out between the defending and prosecuting solicitors. The ten minute debate was over whether they should get an extra week on an adjournment of an ABH case so they could go on holiday. Of course, the magistrates said yes.
I guess everyone needs some summer sun.

A BEDFORD dentist has thought up a novel way of getting youngsters in to have their teeth checked. That reminds me . . .
I’ve got a few wobblers.
GROUP editor Lowe went to a conference on Freedom of Information earlier this month.
 
They have to keep thinking of things for him to do.
 
It was organised by the Westminster Legal Policy Forum. Today the minutes of the conference arrive by email.
 
Another email sends Lowe his personal and confidential password, without which he cannot open the notes.
I think someone should FoI them.
