    My experience in the 'world of business' is that there needs to be confidientiality - so I don't find what the L and B are doing as unusual or excessive. It does worry me that documents which are clearly company confidiential are leaked and...

    Good morning Toby, a quick reply while watching the sun rise over the bay at Lynton and before another day at Woody Bay working on Carriage 17. (Which I will just add is now back in serviceable condition with one sorry looking frame successfully...

    Sorry but it tells me that some members have made their minds up and will not listen to the trustees - I realise that some may be frustrated but that is no reason to shout at the trustees.

    I agree totally - the trustees [both new and old] should be given a chance to settle in and start to address the issues and make plans for the future. It doesn't help saying the consultation about where to go next was a 'mock consultation'. It...

    I don't see it as discrimination - clearly you do. We are both entitled to an opinion - I don't have to agree with you and you don't have to agree with me.
