A complaint about a muddy Maindee street, Valentine's Day dying out, baptising in the river Ebbw, a complaint about those who drop orange and banana peels and sparing a thought for those who can't pronounce street names.
Planting potatoes in town, throwing cardboard, stealing ham, the finest strawberries and an 11-year-old imprisoned and whipped for stealing coal.
The Malpas Mud, stealing a piece of bacon, a new fire engine tested in Pill, an excited teetotaller, 'rounding off' the National Provincial Bank and a circus running out of beer.
