Yes, Garinda, was the one remark I regretted. Again, why do you keep bringing this up after I had the decency to make a public apology for it !!!
Will you never forgive ????

Re: Untidy Hyndburn - Please Post Your Pictures
 

Doubt very much if he aint forgiven yeh Kate, yeh left yerself wide open by saying "Never":D;)

Re: Untidy Hyndburn - Please Post Your Pictures
 

Nothing to forgive.

Though I publicly did.

You gave your opinions.

I disagreed.

Just pointing out a contradiction.

Sometimes you 'do see the worst in what people say'.

As well as an innocent and sweet nature, I'm also blessed with a great memory, so can produce further examples to back this up, if needed.

Just take this as a gentle teasing.

As it seem I, and others, certainly didn't read Ken's post as him not 'knowing how he had the arrogance to say it'.

It always tickles me that people who sometimes decide to share their strongly worded views, then act all suprised when people offer something similar back.

If you're going to play with matches, don't bee too suprised if occasionally you sometimes get burnt.

;)

Exactly.

It was the word never, heavy type, that sent my mind whizzing back, to see if this is always the case.

:rolleyes:

That must be a police matter and not one for the Council.

All the Councillors can do is request the police move these people on - is it disturbing the peace?

Re: Untidy Hyndburn - Please Post Your Pictures
 

True.

But perhaps councillors could be looking as why this is happening, to a much greater extent, than in any other northwest town of a comparable size.

Seems for some there's blindness as to the cause.

.

The council should be considering a no-alcohol zone in the town centre. It's in force in many other places like Manchester, so why not Accy?

The council should also be liaising with the police about ways to make the centre a less welcoming place for these low lives - prosecutions for public order offences, persistent begging etc.

As Gary says, there's a particular problem here. The continuing silence from councillors is nothing short of disgraceful.

At what point does the Market Hall land become public pavement ? I reckon if you set up a stall there you would be classed as part of the Market.

Easiest solution is to shift the benches ( and it's occupants ) on to the strip of road just outside the Town Hall :)

Re: Untidy Hyndburn - Please Post Your Pictures
 

Or go the whole hog and open the Council Chamber:rolleyes::D

Re: Untidy Hyndburn - Please Post Your Pictures
 

You can let it drop now, Steve. I've already said that I've never been exposed to any behaviour like that in Accy but I'm not saying it doesn't go on, I simply haven't been aware of it.

I'll bring it up with the other councillors.

Re: Untidy Hyndburn - Please Post Your Pictures
 

If it doesn't happen in Rishton it doesn't happen:D

Re: Untidy Hyndburn - Please Post Your Pictures
 

I'll be the judge of when I'm going to "let it drop", Ken.

When you do talk to the other councillors, are you going to come back here and tell us what they said, as the Accyweb Labour councillors all appear to have lost their tongues on this subject?

Re: Untidy Hyndburn - Please Post Your Pictures
 

I thought there was one in force already, Wynonie, since 2002 ? :confused:

Re: Untidy Hyndburn - Please Post Your Pictures
 

Is there, Kate? Well, thanks for that information. What a pity a councillor couldn't come on here and tell us that.

In that case, shouldn't the new council be talking to the police about enforcing it as a matter of urgency?

Re: Untidy Hyndburn - Please Post Your Pictures
 

if thats the case kate, its like yeh cant use a mobile whilst driving,ruddy pointless, the law enforces sod all these days, unless its a soft target, gotta make the figures look good.:rolleyes:
