Many of their problems are of their own making.
I used to donate to the cause, but I no longer do so.

I once heard a young woman, who had just come out of the Muandy Grange place(near what used to be Philip Pratt) saying 'She expects us to eat this shi-ite'
The woman had been give an M&S Pastrami sandwich.......she had taken it, despite it not being to her taste and was seen, a little bit further down the street tossing into a bin...ungrateful wretch. That is when I decided that I would no longer support MG.
I think you were kind calling her a wretch Margaret. When Maundy started out at first the late Ken Hargreaves sacked me if I would make a monthly donation to them, £2 I think it was, this was around 1998, I paid it for a while until I heard the stories about what was happening and cancelled my donation, must have been about 2001, people need to open their eyes, as I've said before I hadn't realised how bad it had become until I saw it for myself last summer, this is one of the reasons that Accy is worse than other town centres, Abbey st is like a no go area, and its spreading, fast
