Whats going on at Alleyns school field?

Recommended Posts

My house backs on to Alleyns school field and over the last couple of weeks they have dug up pretty much all of there playing field with some quite heavy machinery. As far as I am aware this is without warning as I have just moved into the house and no building work on the field was indicated by my surveys. Does anyone know what's going on????

Apparently they are relaying the sports field so that they can in future be able to accommodate the 1st X! for football and cricket. The new building encroaches quite massively on those pitches, you see. That's all. It definitely isnt any new buildings apart from the theatre. The NYT are getting a rehearsal room they can use as part of the building. The NYT's founder used to teach english at Alleyns. he left in 1958 to start the NYT. Michael Croft is his name.

    • Please understand that I am not doubting the word of anyone who has posted here with problems with bought-in prepared meat, but (I am old) uncooked meat (perfectly 'good' meat) does smell often, we are too used to shrink wrapped and chilled supermarket meat which can be almost scent free - so we are surprised when 'butcher's' meat does smell (and often, if it is uncooked, quite strongly). Indeed game which is high can smell quite strongly, and not in a good way to our 21st C sensibilities, without being off - as in food poisoning off. Certainly prepared meat, when cooked, should smell enticing, and not at all bad - so the experiences quoted above are certainly very worrying - but younger people reading this should not be concerned, particularly, if fresh (raw) meat they have bought from e.g. a proper butchers has a smell to it. Which is not to say that something which smells rank shouldn't be a point of complaint. Even the smell of high-ish game, if left unwrapped, should dissipate once unwrapped. If it increases however it may be  cause for concern. But raw beef or lamb in the joint can often smell of something which isn't necessarily particularly nice, without it being worrying. It will tend to cook with more flavour.
