#Basildon update, they're still alive! They do seem very long and thin now, so I suspect they're pot bound? But one has developed some little flowers.

From 22 April 2025, changes to Thurrock bus services by First #Essex and #Ensignbus will improve connectivity and maintain key #transport links. First Essex’s Service 200 will no longer serve #Orsett but will run hourly (Monday to Saturday) from #Basildon to #Grays via Chadwell St Mary, #Tilbury, and Little #Thurrock, replacing Ensignbus route 66. To ensure continued access for Orsett, Ensignbus Service 88 will extend from Stifford Clays, while First Essex’s Service 201 will also be extended to Orsett, with four journeys each way on weekdays. Ensignbus routes 22, 44, 73, 83, and X80 will also see timetable changes to improve reliability. Passengers are advised to check updated timetables and plan journeys accordingly.

The River Thames runs across the lower part of the map. Green spaces and residential areas are marked in shades of green and grey. Various streets and landmarks are labelled, with bus stops highlighted using coloured symbols. Key locations include Purfleet, Grays town centre, and the bus station, as well as hubs connecting routes to other areas.The image consists of maps and information regarding bus stations at Lakeside and Grays. The top section shows the layout of Lakeside Bus Station with labelled bays (A, B, F, G, J, M, N) for different bus routes and directions. The centre features an Ensignbus information centre and highlights pathways and garden areas. Below the map is a list detailing bus numbers, destinations, and corresponding bay numbers, such as Bay J for bus 22 towards Grays.

The second section focuses on Grays Bus Station, illustrated with labelled bays (1 to 8) along a curved road. Below the map is a similar list of bus services with destinations and bay numbers, such as Bay 2 for bus 22 towards Lakeside & Aveley. There is also a section about train platforms leading to London and Southend-on-Sea.

I got some of the shopping centre names wrong as I rarely go into South #Essex and have not been to #Basildon since 1990 (and was ejected from the Eastgate shopping centre by security for wearing a hoodie and hanging around with local youths I'd befriended) - but I seem to spend a fair bit of time in the area recently (including long drives along the #A12 as its the only route out of this part of #EastAnglia to SE England)

Why do I think that #BasilDon is not the right hashtag for this?

We got a random packet of #Basil seeds, which we planted, but didn't initially give them enough light, so they're a bit floppy and thin. But now they're sat in a south facing window and getting more leaves. See how many make it.

Crisis in Basildon. The number of homeless children has surged by 200 in just four years, reaching 893 in 2024. This comes despite a 5-year blueprint published in 2019 aimed at reducing numbers. Jenny Rhodes reports

@kkarhan @thatkatharine

there was a moral panic spread in Britain about hoodies by the Conservative government around mid 2000s, and as long ago as 1989 I was ejected from a shopping centre in #Basildon , #Essex whilst wearing one (as I was just "hanging around" with some other teens and not spending money. In some retail places security would challenge youths wearing hoodies although usually only if they had their hoods up, and far less common today as its a more popular garment..

So what happens on a #UKGeneralElection campaign weekend when #RishiSunak tries to avoid the press entirely?

A telly interview with CUP chairman Richard Holden hits the news, where he twice refuses to answer questions about his sudden and last minute party selection in a seat 450km away from #Durham, and then when asked a 3rd time lies about having already answered the question.
