It's that time again

Winter is coming. I see that people are being browbeaten into warning extra clothing or only heat one room in their homes. Please check on any vulnerable person near you.

I have spoken to staff from East Renfrewshire Council ( E R) about The Wall. no real answer but they have been warned.

Hi all

It's wet this morning .

I see work is progressing with the work's at 10 Kerr St Barrhead.. You could be forgiven asking why no weekend work considering the money East Renfrewshire Council ( E R )  are paying for this. The contractors should be required to work week ends.it is after all our money. It is true that this will give us much need social housing but we need these home now.

Morning al


I am pleased to see work is moving along with the repairs to the long term void in Kerr St Barrhead.
A large skip has arrived so far so good.We require the flats as soon a possible it will be good to see people in homes that will be returned to the social rental market & refurbished to a high standard.

Every meeting I attended with the council on housing issues I raised this issue they must have been sick of me asking but I do not care I asked & asked.

The next thing is The Wall.



This will not go away I will not give up

Saturday Blog

Yesterday I took part in a walkabout with management of  Barrhead Housing ( B H ). We had a look at various properties in Barrhead Central in the most good. There was some fly tipping found and this will be taken care of.

During the walkabout I raised the vexing matter of the derelict factory at the rear of Gladstone Av.

This factory has been in a state of disrepair for years & is dangerous this is being used by youths as a hideaway. As this property lies between  B H properties in Gladsone Av & Barns St I have asked if it is possible that B H liaise with East Renfrewshire Council ( E R) to see if the building can be demolished as a dangerous structure. I have raised this issue before but to no avail. I believe this land could be used for housing. I hope to receive a reply soon.

Friday at last


Hi all

Yesterday I paid back the funds to East Renfrewshire Council ( E R ) that were left over when Association wound up. The accounts and paper work will now be held in E R's archives for the retention period. I am personally happy to see the completion of this matter as there was no movement in bank account for over two years.

Late last night I received an invitation from Barrhead Housing ( B H ) to participate in their estate walkabout I shall try to attend as the walkabout should take place this afternoon.
