Doomed, I tell you.

You know better G. right is right and wrong is wrong doesn't matter to me if its Britcliffe or Ken Moss, I have never nor will ever support stupidity, and a calender arriving at the wrong end of Jan is stupid to say the least

But as well as having pretty pictures, it's a tool.

Meant councilllors.

shillelagh · 19-01-2011, 00:40

In fairness, non-Tories have their details listed.

They're just not pictured in the Happy-snaps.

Re. the Calender photo....not trying to stir things , but whats the population of Ossy ? seems to me its not twice that of Arrod which to my maybe dated knowledge has only 4 Councillors on HBC (2 for each ward , Overton and Netherton ,) v Ossy's 8 , since all the faces appear under the HBC logo I'm presuming they are all HBC members and its not including members of the LCC.
Would also doubt that Rishtons population is 3/8ths that of 'Ossy'
maybe a local Councillor would care to comment

apologies if I'm wrong , but just curious

It should be quite obvious. The brain capacity of someone from Ossy is about half that of an 'Arroder. Therefore, they need twice the number of councillors.

I don't know what you are all complaining about.

Just consider yourself lucky the councillors didn't follow the WI and do the calendar naked!

I did hear a story about why one of the Councillors is missing, I would have thought you would have heard about it.

not nice , just because 'Ossy' has ripped off the rest of Hyndburn to become the theatre/cultural/arts center of the Borough one should be kind to the mummers, minstrels and jesters from that fair ex-UDC.
To my mind it beggers belief that moneies which SHOULD have been used for the purchase (either through compulsory purchase or emminant domain)and the renovation/restoration of the "old" Con club as an area 'arts/theatre/cultural' center were used/re-directed towards the renovation some tuppany-happany (sp?) old UDC building as an area arts center with no provision has we have seen in previous threads for car-parking for the attendees, hardly a destination point for all Hyndburn Borough dwellers .... kind of , "if we build it they will come" ...on foot no doubt, in clogs and shawls , since the 15 minute an hour bus service from Accy town center to the Black Dog no longer exists .
Maybe time will tell , possibly in about 2 or 3 years after various OBEs and MBEs have been awarded to the acolytes the "Ossy" arts center will be officaily renamed /re-dedicated as the Britcliffe Theatre and Cultural Center for the performing arts.

Time for the Arroders and Rishtoners to rise up and demand a fair say ...

The building was a mess before the work was carried out and very under used. Why buy another building which would have cost a lot more money and then leave this one still under used?

Does seem more than a little odd.

Ossy - 12,532

Arrod - 11,217

So far.

Now a certain someone has a little medal, to cover their modesty, who knows...?

Watch this space.

Accy Con

you are jesting aren't you, its infested with Dry Rot, that's why nobody will touch it, it would cost more to refurbish the place than knock it down and start again believe me SJ
