Moosey   10 #193 Posted August 28, 2008 Looks like more building work has finally (re)started on the newer part. They've put a few fences up at least and I've seen a builder digging!  I hear Wimpey made a massive loss though last year - we're talking scary massive.

fanfa   10 #199 Posted August 29, 2008 Excellent  Have just had a wee chat with our resident children on the green!!! They were actually quite polite. The boys aren't a problem, it's the blonde girl who has all the mouth. They climbed over the fence despite me asking them not to 'We're not bothering anyone'. Said they were when they were making a noise and it's not their property so they needed to get off. They walked to the end of the grass then climbed back over and went on their way.  Am I being cynical, or should I be expecting rocks at my window tonight!? lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
nda1970 Â Â 10 #200 Posted August 29, 2008 Well done fanfa. I'm just about to go home from work and I don't want to be bothered by those little gits all night! Â What I want to know is, why do they only hang around Friday-Sunday?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
fanfa   10 #201 Posted August 29, 2008 Perhaps their parents are out Fri - Sat evenings?!  To be fair, when they were on the grass, a kid from over the road was screaming at them that they weren't allowed and they'd get into trouble! So their parents must be telling them not to go on the grass! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
nirvana   10 #202 Posted August 30, 2008 I've found this http://www.synwa.moonfruit.com/#/howtojoin/4522026225  Is anyone here willing to become the Neighbourhood Watch co-ordinator?  I've sent off for further information  I can take this up if no one else volunteers - But I have to mention that I wont be available at all times as I work wierd shifts. Probably it would be wise for us to have a residents' meeting and see how many are interested to participate in the scheme ? (Although I am sure almost everyone on the estate would be happy to be 'in') Please keep us posted on further developments. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
