Well today was the big day. At about half past six this morning we had a phone call from the police. They were at the Community Centre, wanting to be let in so their sniffer dogs could check the place out. Jayne took us down there so she could let them in on her way […]

Its the big day tomorrow! Tony Blair is going to pay a visit to the Broadfield Community Centre in the morning to see the playgroups. Its all supposed to be a big secret, but its probably safe to put it here because its only a few hours away, nobody reads this anyway, and half of […]

Productivity

My personal productivity at home has gone through the floor. Its all the fault of a web version of Boggle called Joggle. It is very simple, but addictive. I have loads of updates to make to the Community Centre’s website, but keep getting distracted by this Joggle thing.

It took nearly two and a half hours to get home from work today! I caught a train from Waterloo to Clapham Junction and when I went to cross over to the next platform to catch my train onwards I was told that the station was closing and no trains were stopping. This was because […]

OK, so its the 8th already and therefore hardly a new year still, but its the first time I could be bothered to blog anything since Christmas. Over the entire holidays I hardly went anywhere and hardly did anything, but still the time went by far too quickly and all too soon I was back […]

Tonight I had a meeting at 7pm at the Community Centre. It was only a meeting of the Finance sub-committee so did not last too long and I just had enough time to walk down the road to the Broadfield stadium to catch Crawley Town play Barnet in the Conference league. I managed to squeeze […]

Doom and gloom

We had a meeting of the general council of the community centre tonight. It just seems like everything is turning to shit at the moment: Payment from regular hirers is slow, with some owing a lot of what has been invoiced. One regular user group is moving out – a pre-school group (or after school. […]

Unite against fascism

Tonight I went to a meeting of the Crawley Unite Against Fascism campaign. It was like being back in the 80s – 5 lefties in a church hall putting the world to rights.
Crime

Last night, at about 10pm, J and I popped into the community centre as we were passing, just to check that everything was OK. We found a few doors open that should have been locked but otherwise all seemed fine. There was an internal window open between the main hall’s kitchen and the hallway, which […]
