WHILE waiting 20 minutes for a bus outside the Tankard Inn in Rufforth not one refuse wagon passed me. Other wagons passed plus other heavy vehicles.
We 'early settlers' in Rufforth have survived Greenbanks Transport, Yellow Pages, Caravan Club rallies, the Bank Holiday racing car meetings.
Before that we even survived the Halifax Bombers, the RAF convoys of lorries and the enormous Queen Marys belonging to the 'Peacetime' RAF. Not to mention the noise and traffic from the Cock and Hen nights held in the Buck Inn!
The problem in Rufforth is not the tip or the aerodrome. It is the massive increase in the amount of motor cars coming through the village from the A64 and B1237 to join the A1 at Wetherby.
