There I was googling for a bit of topsoil, feeling highly ambitious after my potato success last year.
What came up as my top search?
Hyndburn Life, now some of you might not remember that site, it only cost somewhere around £600,000 to set up and like a lead balloon it fell, possibly because the area was already covered by a website that served us extremely well, or perhaps because when people tried to become member's, half a million plus software wouldn't allow people to register.
We had the main man for Hyndburn telling us, if we hadn't accepted the cash and wasted it in this manner, (Ooop's sorry I meant used it), we wouldn't have had the cash.
It must be 4? years since we were told it was closed but couldn't actually have the servers cut off because then we, (the residents would have to pay back what was given as a grant).
Having found it again today, I wonder, are the servers grinding away in some long forgotten cupboard? If so maybe we should save a little more money by being Humane and finally pulling the embarrasing plug?
For those of you morbid enough in your curiosity:-
