I want to inform people of a bogus window cleaner going round pretending to clean windows and asking for payment. Unfortunately, on Friday 1st February a young man called at my mother's home again and started to pretend to clean her windows. My mam is 81 years young. It is not the first time this toerag has targeted my mam and by "coincidence" he seems to know when to come. We have told my mam not to go out and pay this "toerag" but frustratingly she does. But phone one of the family or neighbours or even press her red lifeline button for help. I am going to the police station in the morning to report it. But what can be done? I suspect he is doing nothing wrong but what a pest.

I also suspect he is doing the same thing to others

I am very sorry that I cannot make the meetings to represent the village and bottom end of seven sisters Nant y cafn but I have tried vigorously to find another representative without much luck, please continue to keep up the excellent work you do and I don't really have to explain the importance of this group and the excellent work you do in keeping all our communities safer, if I am able to make any meetings you do have I can assure you that I will, good luck and keep up the good work.

Looks really good and I like the new picture of Abseravon beach.

Can we put a small NHW logo in one corner of the picture??

Also I would prefer the material in NEWS to go into the home page otherwise this is an excellent, well thought out bit of work. I really like it lets stop talking and use it!!
