Happy ending for Shogun and his owner who is my neighbour. Thank you @Beds_FireCtrl for actioning my call & thank you to @BedsFire Red Watch Bedford for getting the kitten down safely. It wasn't an easy task so well done. Will Shogun have learnt his lesson? We'll wait and see.

Lansdowne Road closed due to burst water main. Alerted by Zara Layne. Shame this has happened as Lansdowne Road was resurfaced just a few weeks ago. Am following it up. Thanks for the photo, Zara.
