this month<br />
July is normally a quiet month for the <strong>Advertizer</strong> with people on holiday and<br />
schools closed. However, that doesn’t stop some of our local heroes from<br />
being busy doing good deeds in the community.<br />
Just a few weeks ago, Mike Tomenson of Nutech<br />
Cleaning took time out of his working day to wash<br />
down the village signs going into Bishopton. A very<br />
kind gesture thank you.<br />
Ian Beaton from Beaton Brothers was also out and<br />
about filling in some of the deeper potholes out on<br />
the back roads around Bridge of Weir. He was also<br />
able to supply manpower and equipment to help the<br />
Brighter Bridge of Weir group following a car crash at<br />
the barrier on the corner at Prieston Road. A vehicle<br />
mounted the armco barrier and managed to plant itself<br />
right on top of the garden area. The barrier needed<br />
resiting and the garden area completely replanted. So<br />
thank you to Ian and the Brighters.<br />
Last year we heard about local painter and decorator<br />
James Martin who repainted the goalposts in Houston<br />
village park. And during the late summer storms, LJX<br />
Tree Surgeons were quick to come out and chop up the trees blocking the<br />
road in Houston. If you’ve heard about any local heroes who need a shout<br />
please let us know.<br />
Regarding the accident at Prieston Road, Councillor Natalie Don reports<br />
that that junction has been assessed and Council officers have agreed to<br />
augment the traffic island by increasing the kerb size, install illuminated keep<br />
left bollards and introduce rumble strips on both approaches to the island.<br />
While this may not alleviate all concerns, it will at least help slow down<br />
oncoming traffic and hopefully prevent a similar accident in the future.<br />
There are some exciting experiences coming for the school holidays.<br />
Paisley’s Sma’ Shot Day takes place on Saturday 6th July and Scotland’s<br />
National Airshow will be at the East Fortune Airfield near Edinburgh on<br />
Saturday 27th July. The Oor Wullie Bucket Trail runs until 30th August<br />
across Glasgow, Edinburgh, Dundee, Aberdeen and Inverness. The Bricks<br />
Space Adventure will run from 29th June to 13th August with 17 models<br />
spread throughout Paisley town centre - more details on p8.<br />
Wishing you all a happy summer, don’t miss our deadline for<br />
the August issue - <strong>19</strong>th July 20<strong>19</strong>!<br />
