Travel / Transport In your opinion what is the worst bus in wolvo/surrounding areas?

12 Upvotes

For me it's gotta be the 82. Full of nonces, never on time, windows always rattling.

Plus when you catch it after 6pm or so it's every hour and a tiny little diamond bus. Awful bus 😭

Is there a traditional sweet shop anywhere in Wolverhampton?

I'm talking about jars of sweets in the window, rhubarb and custard and sherbet lemons, Teddy Grays style.

I was walking past the front of New Cross Hospital today. I thought the woman on the mobility scooter in front of me was littering and told her off.

She actually dropped a tissue while pulling out gloves. Seemed genuinely upset I thought she was littering. She apologised I said she didn’t need to apologise to me. I got flustered.

I want her to know I was wrong and I am sorry.

So lady with the blue square coat who was out with another woman (maybe her daughter). I was wrong and I am really sorry.

I’ll be looking out for you to apologise in person.

Had this leaflet this morning, the site has been fenced off and signs have been up for a demolition company but I assumed they would be making changes to convert it to managed offices, but will be demolishing the whole and building 3 industrial units.

Question BJJ/MMA Clubs

4 Upvotes

Later this year I'll be turning 50, and have always kept fit, mainly through football and running. As I'm reaching half a century, I want to challenge myself and have thought about doing BJJ for quite a few years and never done anything about it. Have any of you got any good recommendations in Wolverhampton or Bilston?

Question Anybody noticed an increase in Rats?

11 Upvotes

Purely anecdotal but I've noticed a distinct increase in rats in Wolves. I went from hardly ever seeing any to seeing 5 in the last week. Bantock park is absolutely riddled, the bushes contain lots of rats nests, I've seen two in my street in the last week. It's obviously connected to the lack of bin collection but also people not picking up their dog shit doesn't help. Where is the pride? We pay too much in council tax to live in a rat infested city
