I've never had a conversation with dung before. Are you still upset just because you got a slap on the wrist? It was you doing inappropriate things, I don't see why I should be the one made to look and feel bad.

Er...as posted in the link it was the council who said we were to recieve the forms.
'A public consultation will be launched on Monday when the council will send letters to every home in the borough asking for comments.
Residents will be given two weeks to express their views. '
More power to the people? - News - Accrington Observer
Being one of the chosen few, I can inform you that the illusive document did came from our council.
Not apportioning blame, just stating facts.

Re: Town Council forms.
Thanks to all those who didn't receive a form, and are willing to state that fact to the press.
The more the merrier, so please feel free to pm me if you so wish.

Re: Town Council forms.
Apologies to all for milking this thread (no not the silly cow one .. LOL), but Peter (you know who) did state :-
"This will be a very useful opportunity for all people in Hyndburn (still admitting our title then ) to express their thoughts about bringing local govenment down to grassroots level.
We will explain what town councils are about and what the change will mean to them "
Still awaiting ...

Re: Town Council forms.
How mant people read their junk mail yesterday afternoon I recieved about 5 items they all went in the white bag. You quite often recieve mail just marked to the household, which I never open, It would appear that quite a lot of others do the same, about 76.92% seems about right

As stated earlier, I'm damn hot on putting junk mail straight into the rrecycling sack. This letter was clearly not that, and your suggestion that the people who never received one is contemptible.
Happily quite a few of those people are prepared to tell the press they never received one.

Apparently Jaysay thinks you lot are all to stupid to tell the difference from an offical looking form from the council, and junk mail.

Re: Town Council forms.
It appears to me that as in the proposed name change fiasco the publics opinion was not really wanted. If the council or some members of it want to introduce town councils they will do it come what may. As the new signs seem to point out the name Hyndburn is slowly but surely disappearing!!!

Not at all, just suprised that you dismiss so many people as idiots.
People of all political persuassions who weren't give the chance to voice their opinions on this important matter, because of this almighty cock up.

Its you who called these good people idiots Rindi, I just try to be light hearted, can't seem to take things like this serious, given the fact that it is well known the survays such as this are usually returned by less than 10% of any targeted body, I can't see what all the fuss is about, if people are honest how many would have filled in any questionnaire if they had got one.
