The Beacon
 

Paper behind the door called 'The Beacon' HBC propoganda newspaper .. must admit looks extremely informative on the surface, although they are just patting themselves on the back.

As I am off out just now, have not time to study, will save for bedtime reading, but expect a report from my fellow members for when I return.. :D

Did see a refuse wagon today, with the slogan 'be a binner; not a sinner' which made me laugh and looks now like they are now using this ... oh hek, will I ever go to heaven.. :rolleyes:

Hummmph ... Ok then, seeing as there is lack of response on which I thought was a very intersting and controversial thread and expected a huge response (whilst winning the booby prize at the Dog and Otter on their quiz night) I can only surmise that you have not yet received this publication, and I am the only one in Hyndburn that has .. so I will enter my own review tomorrow when the alcohol has exited me liver.. thank you for your interest ... :p:D

Today I got two lovely, full colour, flyers through my letter box, from our council.

One advertising the Christmas lights being turned on, the other informing me that some numpty from ITV's Dirty Dancing, is starring in panto at the Civic Theatre.

I wonder if they are being delivered to every house in Hyndburn, and how much it has all cost?

Perhaps the time and money could have been better spent on a more democratic way of gauging public opinion, over the proposed name change of Hyndburn.

No money for a referendum, or even a questionaire, to every household in the borough on the subject, but at least I know that some Z-list celebrity is appearing as Jack, with or without his beanstalk, here in Hyndburn in the coming weeks.

Whoopee.
