As I've said before you all need something to moan about, and it may as well be my efforts. If it wasn't me it'd be something else that was wrong - probably find reason to complain that the sun is shining...... ah, sorry you've already done that.
Fortunately I don't think this forum is very representative of the town. Seems it's reserved for the white over 60s many of whom carry a chip on their shoulders for some reason, and of course that would be caused by someone else. Could be politicians, bankers, councilors, the youth of today, muslims, the sun coming out, immigration, you name it the problem is caused by someone else.
I've made this point before, but how come noone has anything positive to say at all about anything ?

how the hell do you manage to fit your fat head through the door in the morning? you are very much 'self self self' aren't you, if you are so peed off with the people in Accrington then please feel free to sod off and dont bother coming back, you are what people call a 'troll', only on here to get a reaction and to TRY and cause trouble, you fix a leak on a roof in Accrington and that gives you the right to talk down to the people who have lived in the town all their lives does it? it's no wonder you live so far away, you are nothing but a keyboard warrior, you haven't got the bottle to do anything other than mouth off and slag the town and it's people off, you know NOTHING at all about the town, now sod off back to where you came from, your mother would be ashamed of you

And you, I suppose, see this post as positive?
You see, some of us are realists - we live here so we have to be. It is all very fine for you in some far flung land to sit and pontificate about what you think of us.......you said that our opinion of you doesn't define you......well, Ditto.
And after all is said and done(haven't we been here before) you are just here to make some money...and then possibly run off with what you have made...to some other impoverished northern town where you will bestow yet more of your bounty...and opinions on the people of the locality.
Cashy was right when he said you were arrogant - I don't quite agree with the pig thing though.....I actually like pigs!

Re: Town Centre Changes
I also think hes a troll Margaret, others seem to have come to that conclusion also, though Easton disagrees, but one would expect that.

Dear Mr. Easton,
Thank you for your application for 'Village Idiot', however we find that you are overqualified in some areas and unfortunately not really suitable for the description of the job.
You have mentioned you are over 6' tall, this in itself would remove you from the short list, we are after all looking for someone of approximately 4' 2" suffering from rickets, ring worm, totally inbred, (to the stage of webbed feet and fingers) and they must be able to turn up in a flat cap and walking a whippet.
Therefore we will put your C.V. on file and wish you all the best for your future employment.
Congratulations Mr. Dingle from Burnley, the jobs yours.

Jobs for the boy's, some don't have to apply to be considered.
Nothing like a bit of nepotism, my Darling Uncle/Brother!

Watch it Flashy you'll be accused of making libellous statements.
one thing has me puzzled, he lives 1/2 the world away, looks at property auction brochures or web sites, then picks Accrington without looking on guggle urth.
A bit on the news last night about property prices and where the best prices are for buyers.

Re: Town Centre Changes
Seems I owe the Mods an apology because their likes scores have recently been shot to bits on account of you fools being in rampant agreement with each other..lol. Happy to provide the community a target for your collective vitriol, which though lacking in substance has been mentioned by others long before I arrived.
To answer your question Rettie - I did look at Google Earth and figured that at 20k a building there really was no downside to the price. In terms of the buildings I've seen and lived in many worse places: New Cross Gate and Plumstead in London being a couple of examples that spring to mind. My own home town of Newcastle likewise has many dodgy places that on paper at least are worse than where you Southerners live.
What Google Earth cant show though is the out of control drugs problem in the town, and seemingly on this board. Notwithstanding that, I'm happy with what I bought, those buildings will always be good value. The collective assumption that I'll inevitably sell them once completed isn't necessarily the case. Just as likely that I'll keep them and stay, both in the town and on this board.
Now you really have something to moan about beyond the weather and each other :-)

I have noticed though, a rather repetitive behaviour on your part.
Moan, moan, groan and just a little bit more of moan.
You'd fit in quite well once your head is removed from the dark smelly orifice you talk from.
Oh look, whatever you've got is catching, I've already said your heads stuck up your backside in an earlier post!

Re: Town Centre Changes
another very positive post from our overseas correspondent.
Who on this forum takes drugs....are these drugs legal prescription meds or the illegal stuff that is supposedly freely available and 'out of control'........and is this member making libelous claims?
I am sure he will come back at some point and tell us.
Personally Mr Easton, I could not care less whether you stick around the town, or this forum...if you are here then you are leaving some other poor sods(am I allowed to say sods?) alone.

Tsk, marge, erm I mean, Margaret Pilkington, it's not like you, I'd class the above as a personal attack, keep it up.

Whatever for?
All he has done is point out our imperfections, we should work towards making this his perfect world.
