allotment taken away - conclusion (of sorts) post 668 onwards

[BrideXIII]

01724 273131, News desk at the paper if anyone wants to phone as Bride suggested. Perhaps Tricky could post the direct line and email address of his allotments officer then we can get truly evil.

now you are talking !

tis 60 now,got me long lost twin involved,
just had a look bride,surely someome HAS to take some notice now.

[BrideXIII]

well I am sure that the council were hoping it would just go away, lets face it most times it does because people think noone cares, in this case they picked on a person who actually belongs to a tightknit albiet somewhat spread out community.
this is why i suggest phoning the paper to see if there has been further comment from the council.
if we ring the council and we are not in their ward, why should they care, but the paper is in their ward, if the paper asks them for comment, they need to make one, and i doubt the paper though this many people would care either, let alone realise they were being read country wide suddenly, and are being watched for a result.

My OH just commented too! My OH NEVER uses a computer, you don't know how honoured you are, Tricky.

[BrideXIII]

he he, i just made my second comment, just to let them know Sussex is watching you NLC.

well left my comment no64 also rang the newsdesk and ranted about how discusting this is, council have made no further comment, i asked if they were going to print another story and the reply was yes we may do in the future i said it should be sooner rather than later. But the nice lady did say they cant believe the amount of interest it has received.

WELL DONE!!!

all it will take is a few more phoning in to ask the same question, if we keep the comment pressure up, the paper will see that there are people out here interested in a further story, and the outcome.

i'd phone, but erm BT have just cut my phone line off ....... damn, knew there was something i should have done ...... better pay my phone bill eh??

[bluemoon]

I've just phoned them and the lady was lovely, but it seemed as if she was starting to feel a little overwhelmed. She did say that she'd just had another call on similar lines. I'll gladly phone, email, petition and write to whoever Tricky asks. I'm not going to stop now until he gets his plot back.

[lynda66]

i hadn't noticed actually where it was, but yeah probably a good idea ..... theres a lot of chitchat at the moment, and not much fruit growing .

[lottie dolly]

peeps seem to respond more to things of this nature in general chit,so my theory is maybe generate more support,what do our moderators think.

Perhaps we need a new folder for 'Campaigns'

Maytreefannie - do you grow in the garden or have you found plots in Cork? (Sorry, completely off the point but I just realised where you are from and I'd love to get back there sometime)

I left a msg too Tricky - I hope you get some response from the Council shortly.

hi, Winged One - I grow in the garden. I don't know of any allotment system in Cork.

I just realised you said you'd like to get back there sometime - well it is the Real Capital of Ireland!
