Oh Webmaster - you're back! Or are you not supposed to be?
Hope you are feeling better.
Shelly has been doing a great job while you have been unavailable - not as good as you though John but don't tell her I said that.

HUM! What are you doing here WM?? I shouldn't make light of your experience with Council and the Reporter but I did smile when I read about the stuff up with Wallace's name - at least they didn't put a Grommet alongside Wallace's name!! As for council, its a fact, once the camera's have gone and the PR job is done its back to how it always is. Its such a pity John when it means so much to you that you get treated like this. Anyway, get off the comp your 2 weeks rest isn't up yet - is it?? Bernice

Well John you know what to do when the next election comes around!!!!!! Ignore the same people who have done this to you and see what their reaction is. It can be very dis- hearting when you are trying your best to do for your area and you get ignorant people like this, Wonder why they are in power if they cant keep the promises they gave when elected.Thought they would have been proud to be part of the presentation party and doing something that other towns were not. Hey John you could always do a GUY FAWKES ON THEM. It is the right time of year ha ha

This one does get up my nose Win but --what really gets my goat is the way The EVENING MAIL ,THE DOCK and even the BARROW COUNCIL leader have totally ignored all e-mails etc the DOCK have continually given FALSE PROMISES and the mail only want to know if you send £600 on an advert with all the BARROW connections this site has you would have thought they would have taken an interest. I have however had some success with another print with PIE connections today --reet better go before the lass comes in
