Yep! If there is nothing more important to report.

Oh! Silly, silly me! I forgot.

I’m not supposed to have my own opinions on this forum and have to fall in line with what some other people think.

Can I draw your attention to the fact that I can still draw a long bow with either hand?

Re: Slow News Day?

Hi everyone,
I was interested to read your comments about stories in the Observer as I am news editor at the paper.
We write about thefts such as the £1 computer lead so that the thieves have something to fear, and as jambutty rightly said, on behalf of the victims affected by the act. Many people are also interested to find out why that police car was on their street last night, or why the firefighters were at the mill down the road.
If any one has any good stories, feel free to contact the paper on 01254 871 444, or visit the website (Accrington Observer) to post comments about individual stories.

Hi Lisa. I sent you a private message a while back but you did not reply.

I asked why I often find the copy of your paper I buy to be printed to very poor quality levels. Only last week the copy was very dirty with black marks on the pages and some colour registration issues.

Is this the standard I should expect when I pay for your paper?


To be fair to you over the last couple of months it has been better than when I first asked you about it. Last week was terrible though.

If this weeks is as bad would you like me to send you the copy for your inspection?

I can honestly say I've never noticed that the printing of the Observer is poor.

Might it not be you're getting sweaty palms, in anticipation of turning to the latest Hyndburn Honey page?

Speaking of which, have you seen the latest entrant ? She is 41 years of age and looks absolutely stunning .... good to see this competition is not ageist.
Her 18 year old daughter is also an entrant. Wonder if the Gran will be next ..

As to the thread, I really think Entwisi was tongue in cheek when he put this up .. sure he realised that it was all about the break in .. not what was stolen. Just his sense of fun I think ..

Also, the printing has improved slightly, holding back on the red, and people now look less like they have spent too long in the sun.

This is quite funny, think Jaysay is getting confused between Polly and Pam. Pam put a thread up which said 'noises' by mistake, and should have read 'nuisance'.
