Last time I mentioned the Arndale Clock Busman got a PM telling him to stop using it against Gayle. How the heck complaints about the demise of the Arndale Clock can be seen as an affront to Gayle is beyond me. Yes I've disagreed with some of her point of view about those things which shall remain nameless but not about them in principle and I think she's putting forward, very eloquently here a viewpoint which many of us agree with.

I still haven't totally given up hope regarding that clock and do think it would be brilliant if it could be resurrected and incorporated in the new medical centre building. I recall how elated I felt when the Observer carried that story saying we'd saved it.

I know I'm going to be away for a few weeks again soon but I think I will make another attempt to contact Andy Plant.

As for this name change farce. I will endeavour to attend something and voice my opinion too although I probably won't be as eloquent as Gayle or Katex but I think we all need to get a message across to the cou7ncil that we think this is a total waste of time money and effort. I shall be talking to everyone I know.
