today think

Not much to do to day I think I will just sit & watch T V and surf the net. I was adding up the time I spend doing something in the third sector it is about time I had some me time,

There again if the weather improves I may arrange to do the survey in Gatside prior to there walk around.

Not in our area I see that there is a public meeting on Thursday down in the Cowan Park regarding the rebuild of the Barrhead High School .I do not understand all the implications regarding this issue. We shall see.

A nice day


Is this you.



To day in the car park 


This morning around 0930 hrs this morning .The transporters are from the D L V A and are removing car's which appear to be untaxed a nice surprise if you are out and come home to find your car gone.

I have just got in from a very nice meeting of some people who went to the Still Game all worthwhile we hope to have new and  exciting things to announce soon .
It is just being looked at there is the possibility of a men's shed project starting up.
       

On Wedensday we will de at a working group down at the council offices this is all about fuel consumption. I hope to be able to publish information on the outcome.

                Perhaps we will have information on how you can save your hard earned pound.

I am just having breakfast before I go off to this morning's meeting which is about integration and just keeping active.

 Above are from around Gateside area I will be working with the rep from Gateside to improve the environment and living conditions for all our people.


    Levernside Av this is just behind Gertrude Pl I recall trying to play games badly when this was a framers field. Yes I was young once and I can recall doing all sort of things some of us should just think back before we condemn our present day youth.

Tomorrow I will be at a meeting about the Still Game this is about trying to keep active. I will post on this soon.

The most important part of my calendar for next week will be on Wednesday when the meeting will be about  energy efficiency / affordable warmth I hope to be able to post a lot more on this issue.

All comments are welcome & after moderation may be posted. We control any posting as this blog is open to anyone.

e 
This is the inside of the derelict factory off Gladstone Av Barrhead I have left the date tag on jut to show just how long this situation has been in place. I do know that East Renfrewshire Council ( E R ) had contact with the people who may be responsible for the property but this situation is only attracting people to use this unit for antisocial behaviour.  

As the school holidays are on us youngsters being young will be out & will explore I hope the premises will be resurrected.This was one of the issues raised during our estate walk around.

Early next week we will be arranging the new estate walk around in the Gateside area. We will cover the zone soon to prepare a summery of issues.

Some people question the value of the walk about. However during the last one we highlighted what may be the worst of our flats.This block is in multi ownership and is a prime example of issues that can arise I hope to be able to post a detailed report on the issues providing it dose not intrude in to peoples privacy.

Also raise during the walk around was the vexing issue of the pavement in Blackwood St.

                  
I am concerned that some vulnerable person will have a bad trip and sustain injury.This issue has been highlighted in the report that E R management staff issued after our walk about.

This is just a short summery of the issues raised I hope to be able to issues a posting of some sort of action plan.
         
                                                                               Views welcome.

          I am up early to check things for today's estate walk around I hope the weather improves.  
          I wish to thank the good people who contacted us with input & this will be passed along..
                                           One area of concern was dog fouling.
