The death of an OAP in Kilmarnock on Friday has been verified by the police.

Police name motorcyclist killed in devastating Ayrshire crash

Published

Nan Geddes is going to have her parking spot for the disabled shifted.

 When road managers attempt to move her disabled parking place, an Ayr grandmother claims she fee imprisoned in her own house.

The 84-year-old Nan Geddes, who has a blue badge, has had a disability parking place outside her Glencairn Road home since April.

However, Ayrshire Roads Alliance (ARA) is attempting to move the bay further away from Nan’s door due to “an existing driveway” just two months after the lines were painted.

Nan, who has arthritis and undergone two knee replacements, is concerned about the effects of relocating the bay, particularly because parking on Glencairn Road has historically led to conflicts amongst neighbours.

“I’ve reached my limit,” she murmured.

“At the end of January, I submitted an application for a parking space, and I received confirmation that it would be granted.

 

“I noticed the parking bay when I went outside to make the bed. That was a Thursday; I had met him on the Tuesday.

All hell has broken loose since then. When someone parks across the street, I’ve heard curses and yells at me.

“What’s the deal with folk? What is the world’s problem?

“I’m sleeping all day and I’m up all night, turning night into day.”

ARA was compelled to think about relocating the bay so that it doesn’t obstruct access due to a home with a road across the street.

“I’ve had Roads Alliance at the door twice, once on my birthday,” Nan continued. A warning light had gone on and the garage couldn’t look at it until the following week, so I was unable to move my car until then.

“Last Wednesday, they returned.” I’m confined. The only time I can visit the grocery store is at night, after I’m sure Roads Alliance will have moved their large trucks.

“ARA is trying to get in contact with the owner of the disabled parking bay so it can be relocated close by,” an Ayrshire Roads Alliance representative stated. The present location makes it difficult to access an existing driveway.

Rosemary Burns, 69, passed away on July 3 after becoming ill on a Jet2 flight. The aircraft was diverted to Cork, Ireland, in mid-air after the airline reported an in-flight incident. According to a family-close source who spoke to the Daily Record, Rosemary had become ill while on vacation in the Canaries and boarded an earlier flight home. They said: “Rosemary became ill while on holiday in Tenerife. She became ill and felt that she had to get home. She decided to end her trip and fly back to Scotland. She got on the plane and became ill. The flight was supposed to land in Glasgow but it ended up being diverted to Cork.” Jet2 confirmed that flight LS176 was diverted to Cork, Ireland, following a passenger’s illness.

“His passion was Celtic. He was in the club all the time. Are you still here, Angie the laundry lady used to ask him? because he was still wearing his workout gear when he left, and she was unable to go until it was cleaned.

“She went off her head with him, asking, ‘Do you not have a place to go?'” His best recollections were of the 1988 double. In the hundredth year of the club, that was a historic move.

“It was amazing when he won the cup as a manager, and it was great for us that he was successful at Kilmarnock as well.”
