Comment From Isabel
How will public funding cuts affect policing in North Yorkshire?

5:08
Tim Madgwick: We have already seen significant cuts in our budget, and by the end of this CSR we will have lost £24million. That equates to over 500 members of staff. A lot of those are in the back office, but there will reductions in police numbers as well. The other major factor will be many of our partners, who have been very effective in helping us reduce crime and anti-social behaviour, are also facing the same level of cuts.

Why do it over and over when you only have to write a program )

Celebrations – A quick OCD study

A late gift arrived here at Malton towers and we quickly started fighting over the favourites.

A quick OCD study shows Caramels, Galaxy and Twix are the rarest!

Not really sure what this is all about but I’m sure there was a great marketing meeting that I would’ve loved to be involved in.
