I'm really interested to. Especially after following the other threads about the white stuff and the like. It sounds like beth knows so much about it. Is this something we could all too easily let us pass by when we really could do something worth while as a community in ED. There is a lot of talk about the changes in ED and if they are for the better or not. Perhaps we should stop procrastinating and do something surley a communtiy lead initative is the most posive thing we could do and stop a slip into LL becoming another once was good and now is full of the normall annomonous high street chains. (I still havent gone into Nero and it saddenes me that only a company with that kind of money can afford the rates, imagin how great that space would be if it was an independant coffee shop. There is obviously a niche, yet all that money is flowing back into a corpate company nothing back into our community.

We could have a real lounge, a real music room ect they are great concepts and dont just have to be virtual.

Any way are there enough people interested at least to properly get together and discuss this or is this going to become a forgotten thread?

I would go along to something and give my time and support around the fundraising and setting up the trust but with a toddler in tow, I don't have the energy to be the leader or co-ordinator to get it together!


It does really need a couple of energentic people with the time and energy to get it going. Also Keef and others, bear in mind that setting up a development trust isn't going to generate money for individuals - all money raised and profit gained will go back into the trust so the board running it would have to be prepared to be volunteers and not make a dime from the project themselves!

    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
    • I haven't had a rude EVRI delivery but last week I had an unexpected delivery at 10.42 pm. He didn't ring the bell or knock on the door (or rattle the letter flap) but just took a photo and put the box down.  If it hadnt been for the door camera giving us a beep we would never have known there was a parcel ready to sit there all night.  
    • Sorry if I’m being slow but there’s no point in having a gate then is there?  Would have thought it was basic manners to respect someone’s property 
    • I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open.
