Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

The Hyndburn Council web site trumpets that it is an "Excellent" Council, but its news page is 1 to 2 months out of date. The Leaders viewpoint talks about what is happening tomorrow (June 26th) and the Annual Meeting of the Council will apparently be held on 26th May.

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Not altogether certain what you mean Gynn. Think it is fair enough. The Leader's Viewpoint covers all types of events which are still ongoing/some held and general comments. Will probably change when none of it is useful ... or when Cllr. Britcliffe has something else to inform us of... sure won't be long.

Only mistake there is was issued on Thursday 24th June and quoted an event for 'tomorrow' but did quote the date and day of Saturday 26th June. This would be nit picking. Something before schedule for a change ...LOL.

All meetings are held there on a list and also show past and current meetings ?

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

And in English that means????

;)

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Errr ... well, the Leader's Viewpoint covers all events ... some have gone, some on going plus his other viewpoints. So nothing wrong with it still being up there.

There is a list of all council meetings ... some gone (with reports) and some to come.

Savvy?

If anyone else found my explanation difficult, please let me know and I will try and do better. :rolleyes:

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Thank you, please don't change, it was like doing the Daily Telegraph crossword and I love that.

:D

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

There was me thinking it was the start of somethink big:mar:or maybe not:smack::D

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

:lol:

Will you stop ripping off sections from the latest Mills & Boon you are reading and join us in the real world?

:cool:

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Nearly three months on from my above post, and the website is STILL telling us that the Annual Meeting will take place on 26th May.

How sloppy is that? Surely there is someone at the Council charged with looking at the website news more often than once every 5 months?

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Obviously there is no one reading this thread gynn, mores the pity;)

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Or perhaps someone in charge believes in the adage, "No news is good news"?
:)

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Is that you putting yourself forth to go and sort out the problem?

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

ME:rofl38::rofl38::rofl38::rofl38::rofl38:you cannot be serious, the bloody thing would crash never mind sort it out:D

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

So you cant fix it leaving their system and info techs as :lamer:. Maybe :enough: is the answer then for the system.

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Due to this years budget (or more to the point -lack of), the lackey who's punishment it is to trawl through all pertinent items in regards of said web site has been sacked ! And in Accordance with DC's Big society, we're sure a willing volunteer will step forward presently from the local peasantry. ;)

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

This reminds me of a story about a neglected public website who had their domain name taken over when they 'forgot' to pay for it.

The person who 'bought' it used it to well and truly embarrass them.

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Without a link, you are spreading rumour and hearsay, or maybe it's one of your local myth's? because I know someone that paid for a web site address and yet someone comes on here regularly and still claims it to originally be his!

:D

The best one I ever heard was a bloke called Michael Rowe who set up www.mikerowesoft.com and was given firm instructions from Microsoft not to use it anymore.

Not sure of the legalities surrounding it as it was some years ago but it made me chuckle that one man brought on the wrath of a huge corporation like that.

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

How strange, I, according to you am on your ignore list and yet you come forward with proof of your carp, one of us must be telling untruths about something in our life, (or maybe untruths for more than one thing)?
:)

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

In he words of Corporal Jones Ken, "they don't like it up um Captain Mainwaring" these big companies don't have a sense of humour:D

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Someone at Scaitcliffe House must be keeping a watch on this site. The above has now been fixed! Many thanks.

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Some one put their name forward to help maybe. If it was some one off here then the council paniced so they sorted it to be on the safe side. Who says the council dont listen. :rolleyes: The answer to problems with the council might get less if the cop a lot of distain and grief on here. :D

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Someone is paid to read this every day during working hours, simply to make sure nothing libellous is being written about the Leader's Office.

Even more of a reason to trim the fat next May, should the administration change.

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

I could do that job!! :rolleyes:

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Grass :D

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Nooooooooooooooooooooo not the grassing bit!!!! :eek::D
I would be sacked after a day anyway coz I wouldnt be able to stop meself posting!!! :rolleyes:

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Couldn't we all, mate!

I should just point out that reading Accyweb isn't their sole occupation, but if you really want to stir up a hornet's nest then come online between 12pm and 2pm and write something truly wicked about the controlling group.

Ever heard the one about the cook who cost HBC over £8,000?

There once was a chef called Zilli.....

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

I do this job...............WITHOUT the pay:D:D

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

:rofl38:Your naughty!!! :dflam:

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

A disgrace, apparently.

That's from the Leader of the Council, goodness only knows what you lot really think of me....

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Ahhhhhh are you fishing for compliments?! :D;):p

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Good grief no. Might inflame my 'bloated ego'.

I'll say this much for getting elected, all sorts of things get said about you which are inaccurate but very amusing.

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Thats good though that you can laugh along and not take things too seriously, I bet alot of people call you just to try and wind you up and get a reaction! :D
I have give you some karma anyway as you have made me laugh this morning!!

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

First two rules of survival in politics as far as I can see:

1. Don't be afraid to admit sometimes that you've cocked up

2. Be able to laugh at yourself

I held a surgery in Rishton last week and a long-running sore point came up which I thought we'd sorted out in July but it turns out we were badly informed. To try and defend a wrong decision that wasn't really our fault would have been absolute suicide, the residents were far more appreciative of a bit of honesty that things hadn't gone according to plan.

Thanks for the karma!

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

yeah but your too soft :rolleyes::p:D

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Life rules I think Ken, I try to stick to them all the time.

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Ya but you have other perks mick, like meeting me occasionally:D:D

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

There are laws of libel even on here Ken:D:D:p

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

How could you post that without a smiley:p

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Survival, perhaps, but to succeed in politics, here are three better rules.

1. Don't be afraid to admit that other people have cocked up.

2. Be able to laugh at others.

3. Tear up the rule book.

:D

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Thats more like it:D

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

What a fool I am. These stock answers have been staring me in the face for months:

1. It's Graham Jones' fault for having two houses.

2. It's 13 years of Labour rule.

3. Look at what the previous administration got wrong.

John, as you have pointed out so often before, I have a lot to learn.

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Somebody will be reporting you to a higher authority for admitting to what the Tories use instead of principles!
:D

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Has he got 3 houses now? :D

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

I heard a story from a wedding last year which had quite a few politicians present and when last orders were called the DJ asked:

'Come on ladies and gentlemen, haven't you got second homes to go to?'

It's one of those things I wish I'd thought of first.

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

You'll have to be a councillor for a lot longer before you come up with pearlers like that of the cuff:D

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

Does that mean that you think both Ken and myself are talking sense Les:D

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

I've known you too long to expect sense, Ken I will give the benefit of the doubt, (for a short while).
:)

Re: Hyndburn Council Web Site
 

I'm cut to the quick:s_cry::s_cry::s_cry::D
