oops forgot to say that there has been an application put in for at least 98 houses to be built on this site .........(old t.m.l site)

not sure whats happening tho' maybe somthing to do with the recession? katex will know more than me about this.

Re: Its Happened.
 

I wonder how long they will be there and what mess they will leave.

I think all the official sites we have in Hyndburn attracts them like flies to you know what

Re: Its Happened.
 

Textile Mouldings LTD.:)

Re: Its Happened.
 

Well LOL, only that planning permission was refused, don't know whether there has been a re-submission . haven't found one yet :-

So looks like your visitors could be in for a long stay then ... :(

Re: Its Happened.
 

Well myself I'm all for live and let live but these people take the biscuit, they're not content with setting up camp and behaving reasonably, they turn the area into tip within days, terrorise the surrounding area, things start to walk from garden sheds and Church roofs and then they wonder why people despise them. The only trouble is each time the council want to move these people on, they have to go through the rigmarole of going through the courts each time. Its about time that councils could get exclusion order for the whole borough which last twelve months instead of having to mess about every time another mod arrive:mad:

Re: Its Happened.
 

Wonder if the ones that were on the Sports Centre car park have moved on. Agree with Jaysay, they should be able to use the court orders more than once.

Re: Its Happened.
 

wouldn't need court orders if i had me way.

Re: Its Happened.
 

you and Adolf. LOL
happy new year cashy

Re: Its Happened.
 

You can't do that cashy!!!!!!!!!!! they have rights you know:Dnotice I now exactly what wavelength your on though:rolleyes:;):mosher:

Re: Its Happened.
 

agree they have, unlike ordinary people,who just have the "RIGHT" to be crapped on from a great height by all the do-gooders. happy new year beechy.:D

Re: Its Happened.
 

and they like to eat blackbirds.... these are of course realated to the Magpie Family so not good.... they should get the boot up their bums and moved on:

Re: Its Happened.
 

baby jesus was a traveller and he had no where
to live, just think how much we could have saved
this year alone if only he had been given the boot

:hehetable Sorry

Re: Its Happened.
 

Yeah but he did not nick of the locals .... and leave rubbish all over the place ..... and he we go again bring Jesus into Christmas :-) only joking before I get bad karma .....

Re: Its Happened.
 

and whos to say he didnt nick,
the gold, frankinsnce, and myrh.
and that the donkey didnt dop stuff all over the place

go on ill share your bad karma :mosher:

Re: Its Happened.
 

Agree with cashy ( for a change, ahem!) Armed police removal on day one!

Re: Its Happened.
 

Hmm, this sounds like a tactic that is used by developers, if they get refused planning permission, sic the gippo's onto the site.
that way the locals would rather that houses were built there instead of them :D

Or so I heard once.

Re: Its Happened.
 

Na that would be counter productive for the developers mattyladd, it takes to long to fumigate the land ready for building:D

Re: Its Happened.
 

well here goes an update for you all

on 3-1-09 there were 5 caravans parked on the said site

on 4-1-09 there were 7 caravans parked on the site

now i reported them to the police on the 3rd , who went on rode round then dissapeared.

i then reported it to the council (enviromentel health dept)

today; i moved myself from watching the tele to have my usual nosey at the chaos that

goes on when the kiddies are being picked up from school (car parking mostly)


now my eyes were drawn to the site by some flashing lights & would you believe

it ............ there were police & men in black & a black police van there & there is at

this minute only 3 caravans there ..........wow !!!


the rest have gone hurrah !!

Re: Its Happened.
 

right another bit of info for you ........the police & the owner of the site were there on saturday night ....(i missed that:eek:) & because they had broken into the site ...the posts of the gates were cemented into the ground, they were given until midnight tonight to clear off , riot van & 3 caravans still there .

Re: Its Happened.
 

why the hell don't they charge em with trespass?:confused: always baffeled me that.

Re: Its Happened.
 

They'd never turn up at court cashy

Re: Its Happened.
 

I wonder if it's the same lot that were on Ellison Street the other week, there were 5 vans there for about 4 week then they got moved on after they started fighting between themselves and one of the vans getting wrecked.

Re: Its Happened.
 

they would if they were remanded in custody.

Re: Its Happened.
 

Well it looks like they've moved back to the car park on Ellison Street.

Re: Its Happened.
 

Your having a laugh aren't you cashy, the dogooders don't even like remanding murderers in custody never mind pikies:D

Re: Its Happened.
 

If these people are travellers why do they get so upset when asked to move on

Re: Its Happened.
 

They're looking for their true selves Tony:D

Re: Its Happened.
 

Always confuses me when they create permanent sites for travellers :confused:

Pontins even had posh titles for them and called them holiday camps :D
