I had a school friend who lived in the houses that back onto the Memorial Park and someone in her family was traumatised by finding a young man who had hung himself from a tree.

The fact that, as I've just realised, the forum goes down for maintainance every day when America wakes up and Britain goes to bed, might have something to do with it. Hopefully the great and the good who run the forum site will have finished pratting around with the server soon and then thousands of eager posters will come pouring in with their fascinating debates...<BR/><BR/>er...yes...<BR/><BR/></B>Brian Hugheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00350965110160879688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34515154.post-12323099811144845662007-07-16T08:13:00.000+01:002007-07-16T08:13:00.000+01:00John,I honestly don't know why people aren't start...<B>John,<BR/><BR/>I honestly don't know why people aren't starting debates, asking questions, posting photographs or joining in discussions over at the forum but, unfortunately, I can't force 'em. (There's something in the law books about 'horses and water and drinking' I think.) It would be more entertaining, I'm sure, if a few more visitors dropped by to sell hello, criticise, tell us something new, remind us of something old etc. Er...not that I'm saying your contributions aren't up to much...it's just that, obviously, the more the merrier and all that. (Did I manage to rescue my foot from my throat then?) Perhaps I'd better get some coffee inside me and wake up properly.<BR/><BR/>Brian<BR/><BR/>n.b.

Simak story where a historian, with a time viewer, studied one acre of land throughout the millenia. He said that most of it was watching the grass grow, but he did have a bit of excitement when a murder occured just outside his acre, but the murderer actually ran through a corner of it.<BR/><BR/>Of course, he should have chosen a better acre, such as any of the many wonders of the Wyre and Fylde.<BR/><BR/><BR/>PS Why aren't people joining the fabulous discussions at your message board? I as online the other day, and saw that people were coming and going, but none took the time to write.<BR/><BR/>Too bad, really, since they might have something good to contribute if they'd only take a moment.<BR/><BR/>Cheers, JOHN :0)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15142977785391302797noreply@blogger.com
