Topic : Silsden Beck |
|
| The Stig |
When are the council going to clear up the beck by the Post office. Its a right eyesore since the heavy rain has moved all the rocks etc. |
|
| pumbajunior |
dunno is it the councils job and do you mean bradmet or silsden town council at least we have a beach now |
|
| alliecoward |
why don't we all do something about it and get to the beck one day this week with our wellies. how about tomorrow?? |
|
| pumbajunior |
working might be better 1 sunday in spring then the likely hood of more floods/rocks later would be less plus might be warmer so more people might be up for it what would we do with the rocks/debris? |
|
| hermione fraggle |
Build a rockery? Maybe we could collect the rocks to build a rockery in one of the sheltered housing complexes. Clear an eyesore and make something nice for people of of it. |
|
| alan |
Don't the rocks want putting back from where they were scoured out under the bridge? Just a suggestion  |
|
| alliecoward |
omg!! we are'nt going to spend shed loads of time arguing where to put the rocks are we( i can think of several good places)when we can't even set a date to clear the damn thing. come on everybody what's wrong with you....get off your butts and do something for your village....or don't moan. |
|
| alan |
Read my post "alliecoward" Put 'em back where they came from! |
|
| alliecoward |
i'm sure that would'nt be an order would it alan??!! I take that as an offer of help? |
|
| pumbajunior |
i think a weekend would be better than mid week as most people work midweek |
|
| alan |
Just a suggestion 'alliecoward' If I could lift heavy rocks I'd be more than happy to help, but I can't  p.s. I can provide a doctors note! |
|
| alliecoward |
we could always do with a foreman and teamaker alan....unless you have a doctors note for that as well? |
|
| alan |
Could do that, very good at that in fact! Can show you my scar if you don't believe me |
|
| alliecoward |
er, will pass on the scar, but you are elected to foreman and chief refreshment provider, how about sunday 2.03.08??? |
|
| alan |
Will do my very best................  |
|
| mr&mrs-dogooder |
cant we just concrete over-it |
|
| carliol |
if we concrete over it, we may get even more floods than recently. Besides, we live next to it, and our visitors always say they sleep better to the sound of running water! |
|
| mr&mrs-dogooder |
turn a tap on. |

|
| alliecoward |
what day/time would work for most people? |
|
| jojo |
Oh dear for the want of a cause! Bradford sort the beck out after floods with a JCB. I suggest you contact Silsden Environment Group who organise a beck cleanup in the Spring. In the past (many years ago) Silsden Town Council debated about covering this area of the beck to provide a bus station, or a car park. |
|
| pumbajunior |
spring weekend would be better warmer lighter etc |
|
| alan |
Mmmmmmmmmm Suddenly the volunteers are busy |
|
| babba100 |
why dont we just asks the ducks to do it? |
|
| alan |
May as well 'babba 100'! |
|
| pumbajunior |
whats everyone doing over easter? |
|
| babba100 |
Stopping my kids from distroying everything given the sugar rush is what i will be doing at easter weekend. i wonder seriously just where the best place to put the rocks would be...... maybe it would be best consulting with the environmetal dept (?) just to get an agreement. Sounds petty i know, but i can guarentee someone will complain wont they?! I'd put them in my shed but i think my neighbours would get worried. |
|
| alan |
Sad isn't it, suddenly all the volunteers get busy Bit puzzled why the debate about the rocks, I thought it was simple they got scoured out of the foundation of the Post Office bridge did they not? So put 'em back or else next time there may be no bridge! |
|
| alan |
Well 'alliecoward' looks like we won't need many tea bags that day will we! |
|
| alliecoward |
this post has been edited 1 time(s) I still have faith alan.......that more than just you and i will turn up! if not one teabag, and looks like i'll be lugging all the rocks!!! |
|
| babba100 |
make me feel guilty now...... |
|
| coby1 |
