The Mowlem
Next time you walk past the Mowlem, look at the concrete that overhangs the sea. That's not good
Death Alley
Once again we have a sunny half term day with hundreds of families with their kids playing on the beach. The amusement arcade, the ice cream shop and the toilets are all on the other side of the road along which two way traffic can proceed at 30 miles an hour against a fence of parked cars, vans and suvs. There have already been deaths here. Why o why isn’t the road closed all year around?

How come Windfarm off Swanage!?
gets posted up but The Mowlem and Death Alley don't?
An explanation. There may often be a delay in posting new subjects, simply because I'm not sitting by my computer all day to do it.
Prepare for the Olympics!
There will be a meeting at the Town Hall, Swanage, on Friday 6th March, from 3 - 4.30, to discuss how we can plan and prepare and make the most of the Sailing Olympics at Weymouth in 2012. Gary Fooks, Olympic Legacy Manager, will be present to discuss how this once in a lifetime opportunity could provide benefits before the Olympics, during the events and a lasting legacy beyond.Anyone in busines or interested in entreprenurial opportunities should try to be there.

If we don't riot, Labour are likely to be obliterated in a general election.
If we do riot, there won't be one.
Interesting?

Co-operative Group to close Somerfield
Peter Marks, the chief executive of The Co-operative Group, has revealed that he plans to close Somerfield's head office in Bristol next year, putting hundreds of jobs at risk, and that it will take "at least two years" to convert more than 650 Somerfield stores to its own brand.

If Coop are converting all the Somerfields, they must be planning to sell Somerfield in Swanage otherwise we would have two Coops !
Yet more job losses which the town dosnt need.
Um I thought somerfield was to become Budgens in may a done deal so I was told keeping all the present staff.
New and improved, but still draft, Community Plan.
Thereś some good stuff on housing.

I see the EU want to reintroduce the death penalty for certain offences WOW.
Sainsbury´s have just purchaesd 24 Co-Op properties.
So anyone heard any more rumours about Somerfield and Budgens?
When I was a kid (50 years ago)the piles of the pier were covered in mussels, can anyone explain why there are now none?
It's my understanding that somebody who owns the Swanage domain is working on a new Swanage site and forum to replace the closed one. Does anyone know anymore on this?
£75 * 10 to the power of 9
£75,000,000,000
It may yet go up to £150,000,000,000 - and probably further if necessary.
Well, I loathed the ´80ś - 3 million unemployed - an acceptable cost - my a*/e; get on your bike, Miner´s strike and then LOADSAMONEY, Yuppies, Conspicuous consumption.
Let´s hope it works.

you´ve obviously got the internet - use it.

Unless you know better.
An architect bought the house that was for sale overlooking the mill pond to use as a holiday home (The lady who owned it left strict instructions in her will to sell it to a local family but her family ignored her wishes).
The builders have now put a huge Velux window in the front roof, ruining the look of the entire row.
It's a conservation area, a much photographed area in the town and yet the town planner said he was too busy when a neighbour phoned up to complain.
If you object to it, please let the council know.
Dear 6:45 PM
That's a blog not a forum.
I was told in a meeting that it would be just called Swanage, and the forum would be a part of it.
Any information would be great.
Dear 11:57 AM
I wish anyone who wants to start a local forum and website the best of luck with it and I hope they enjoy the fun you have with moderation and removal of offensive and sexual posts which forums seem to attract!
Next time I see the owner of swanage.co.uk and .com, I will wish him the best of luck personally with his new project.
