15/11/08 - Paddy Doyle completes double 40lb back-pack endurance challenge
CraigyB writes "Like it's not tough enough to walk through a few boggy fields with a 40lb backpack, Balsall Common's Paddy Doyle took the theme to a dizzying new level by taking on two mammoth back-pack endurance challenges in one day.
On Thursday (13 November) Paddy firstly broke a 10km 40lb backpack challenge record held by Rob Simpson from Leeds, before smashing a recognised Henley-in-Arden marathon record by more than 8 minutes.

08/08/08 - Balsall Common Residents Association Newsflash - 8th August 2008
Dear Residents
This newsflash is to make you aware that there has been a severe outbreak of credit and debit card cloning, centred on the village. I have been informed that well over 40 people have been affected. There are rumours as to where the cloning could have occurred, but clearly the Laws of Liable preclude me from stating the possible locations. What I can do is remind you of the basic precautions that you should take when using your card.

29/09/07 - WARNING! New Industrial Estate planned in Berkswell
chrisb writes "Dear Local Resident,
WARNING: AN INDUSTRIAL ESTATE IS ABOUT TO BE BUILT ON FARMLAND BETWEEN BERKSWELL & MERIDEN
The owners of Home Farm, Meriden Rd, Berkswell, who live many miles away, plan to develop the farm into a more profitable industrial estate.
The creeping development process has already started as bit by bit planning permission is sought and the industrial estate built. We thought the old farm was simply being renovated but it was changed into ugly metal clad industrial buildings. Afterwards planning permission was sought for change of use into offices and industrial storage. The old cow sheds are now industrial units and only now have the true intentions of the industrial developers become clear and we find out this was just the start of a much larger plan to develop the entire farm area into an industrial estate; New industrial units are now planned!
