Lichfield City FC
5 stars for the grounds, cafe staff, turnstile staff and the programme sellers - really lovely welcome to visitors!
We were sitting in the stands this afternoon for the Lichfield / Darlaston match - the behaviour of some supporters of all ages was disgraceful- it clearly says....DO NOT STAND IN FRONT OF THE STANDS WITH SEATON
Older people were fearful of saying anything and when myself and an older Lichfield fan asked them kindly to stand to the other side they started kicking off and staring - wouldn't move.
These matches need more wardens - like they do at Stourbridge and Yelt - I am afraid the current youth coming up are thugs with very little regard to rules or being mindful of others and their parents are even worse... and that's coming from a 30 year old reviewer.

Halesowen Cricket Club
The Firework display was EXCELLENT, there were two shows and the last one was spectacular.... BUT....
....the food trucks.... slop, pigs slop... it's gross and don't get me started on the unsanitary sauce bottles in no order, other people's dumped food next to it... 🤢
It's 2023, you can do better, there are beautiful pizza truck owners out there and roast pork ones, bring these on and I will definitely eat here.

Buckpool and Fens Pool Local Nature Reserve
The hidden Gem of the Black Country - walk all the way through the Pools and down to Wordsley, it's so beautiful and peaceful here, canals, pools, disused rail tracks, people are starting to discover this special area!
Dudley Sports and Social Club
Saturday, 5th November 2022 Fireworks Display, absolutely awesome. 💯
Beautiful fireworks, brilliantly timed and dramatic, well attended but not horribly crowded!
There wasn't a bonfire but I think that's wise considering the size of the field and we're in an urban setting, although a neighbours bonfire could be seen, which was cute!
The food trucks are further into the social club road/parking - not being local I didn't know this. I could have murdered a hot dog though - we only saw the trucks when we left the football grounds but we'll remember this next year!
I think the Social club might think about having collection boxes on the night at the gates, so people can donate money to their future displays. That they generously provided this for free, is another example of the awesome generosity that lays within the Black Country and its incredible, friendly communities and social nature♥️
Lots of families attended and surprisingly well behaved kids, no boggy field, a neighbours bonfire in the background added to the atmosphere and because you're on a hill, you can see all the other firework displays around you!!! Including some very awesome amateur displays in surrounding domestic gardens.
It was a really good atmosphere, like back in the day when life was simpler and fun! Very friendly and welcoming, we'll definitely come back. 🎆 🎇 🧨

Walsall Manor Hospital
I am usually on the otherside, dealing with patients and families in another hospital in Birmingham.
Today I had to attend A&E AT Walsall within a hour of phoning 111. My colleagues were concerned about my post viral cough, wheezing, coughing fits and shortness of breath. I had to be seen.
Unfortunately there were no parking spaces and nearly gave up but I phoned the hospital to explain what happened. The switchboard were amazing and out me through to Security. Because there were no spaces and I couldn't walk far, they allowed me to park very near and would keep an eye out. I am so ill and exceptionally grateful to be being treated like a human being.
The lady at the old A&E reception is a beautiful soul, absolutely lovely, humane and helpful.
The bloods nurses and cardio nurses again, very mindful and caring. I am diabetic and the nurse brought me a sandwich which I wanted to pay for but she wouldn't have it - seriously, that was the kindest gesture x
It's taken 5 hours to have my tests and bloods but the staff are genuinely kind and deserve an award.
