Come dancing?

November 29th, 2007 · 1 Comment · Life

This does not appeal to me personally. I am not into dancing, except when I have got on the outside of a bottle of Breuilly and Rock El Casbah or Boogie Nights comes on the stereo, but this might appeal to those who have got hooked on Strictly Come Dancing: Time to dance brings you […]

Logos

September 26th, 2007 · 1 Comment · Life

Its not that I don’t like the proposed new Crawley Borough Council logo It could have been a lot worse. I’m not even too concerned about it’s unfortunate resemblance to an MBNA logo Its just that I like the one I did much more. I would go so far as to say that I am […]

Spot the difference

September 17th, 2007 · 3 Comments · Politics

This month Crawley council unveiled its (slightly) controversial new logo. The leader of the council says “we didn’t want to be too safe with the new logo and we wanted something that would stand out and that said something positive and distinctive about Crawley” Well it certainly stands out. Positivity is a bit subjective. Distinctive…? […]

New council logo

September 7th, 2007 · 5 Comments · Politics

After two years of work the Crawley Tories have come up with a design for a new Crawley Borough Council logo. The predominance of blue in the logo comes as no surprise, but I wasn’t expecting a tree design. Very original. I wonder where they got the idea from… oh hang on… Or even more […]

A glimpse into the future?

August 5th, 2007 · 12 Comments · Politics

According to last week’s Crawley Observer, Councillor Eade does intend to try and introduce prayers at Crawley council meetings, although whether she will still be so keen now that a similar motion of hers failed to be carried in Adur I don’t know. With that in mind, it was interesting to see this report of […]

Yet more bins

August 1st, 2007 · Comments Off on Yet more bins · Politics

The business about litter bins in Crawley, as disclosed in the Broadfield Forum, was in the local rag this week. I am still in two minds about it: I can see the logic of it but can also see how difficult it would be to prove one way or the other. Litter is one part […]

The Tory party: only Christians need apply?

July 22nd, 2007 · 2 Comments · Politics

I have just written about how I think one of our councillors is not only a part-time councillor, but one who is probably in breach of some or other code of conduct in Adur and who stood under false pretenses, but there are some interesting minor details to it all. I can thoroughly recommend a […]

Bins again

July 22nd, 2007 · Comments Off on Bins again · Politics

I am starting to doubt what we were told about bins at the Broadfield Forum the other day. One piece of evidence for bins causing rubbish seemed quite compelling: bins were removed from half the memorial gardens and the half without bins has less litter than the half with bins. This was in addition to […]
