Graham you've lost me. Firstly I haven't seen a Tory canvass sheet for seven years. Secondly I ain't a clue who your inlaws are, As for getting a flea in your ear from your mum, well there's one person in you family with sense, I bet she's a real nice lady
As for calling me names,the offence was committed on the 29/2/2008 on the silly cow thread post 209, that is when I reciprocated, but I accept people do things on the heat of the moment, although I always think things through first myself. So sorry for any offence caused on my part and we'll draw a line under the issue

Re: Hyndburn to be axed.

I've just checked post #209, in the Silly Cow thread, to see that the gross insult issued was 'pillock'.

pillock - definition of pillock by the Online Dictionary from Datasegment.com

Pudden-head.

What I and many others would like to see on here is a Conservative councillor or the esteemed Mr Britcliffe himself come on and voice their opinions; preferrably under their own names.! I may not always agree with Councillor Jones but at least he has the guts to come on and air his views. I applaud him for his honesty and the fact that he takes the time out to read our site and to post on it.
if ya dont think resorting to personal attacks is ok,fair enough,but why did you not say when graham first started it? i quite like G.J. and had a conversation with him only last sat afternoon, but though i could never agree with jaysays politics, i agree with his comment(all bets are off) so i just leave em to it. P.S. as its panned out they seem to have buried the hatchet now, good am well pleased about that.

Re: Hyndburn to be axed.

Has anyone noticed the new logo starting to creep in?

So all the arguments about the cost of changing signage with the change of name, etc now a moot point as the signs are being changed any way!

I noticed they've added.....An excellent council as rated by the audit commission.

Is that the bit you mean?
