As a background to TONIGHT'S MEETING @ 8PM @ THE GOLDEN LION Councillor Chris Best asked me to post this link to an extract of the official minutes of the Sydenham Assembly meeting pertaining to the Greyhound: http://councilmeetings.lewisham.gov.uk/ ... xtract.pdf

Hence it is an agenda item on an open Council Meeting on October 1st - a date to put in your diaries to attend if you can:

Admin,
I hope you don't mind me using your picture in this way. I posted your picture to their Google+ account which was sadly lacking any nice pictures. Rather nice effect I think.

How many years now has this been going on?

Not so much 'What if', more 'what the f**k!'.

Tracey Sultana was the person who said Purelake had no comment on the #rebuildthegreyhound campaign (see South London Press article on page 1).

These tweets were in response to a couple of polite (now deleted) tweets. Does it say it all about Tracey's personal and corporate view of us?

Best left alone now methinks.

At the meeting tonight, could the question also be raised to Chris Best about the Station Approach loos, now also semi-demolished and abandoned. First, another eyesore ongoing? Secondly, no public loo at all currently. The loos are also a gateway, being on the entrance/exit approach to/from Syd. Station.

I hope to be at the meeting - just thinking good to kill two birds with one stone.

At least she knows we feel strongly about the Greyhound, I have no shame in tweeting her, she is the spokesperson for Purelake is she not? :lol:

I hope Tracy Sultana has a good raisin for her currant position.

Actually, she isn't their 'spokesperson', she's their property manager. I think maybe the newspaper report misinterpreted 'person shoved forwards to say no comment' as 'spokesperson'.

Having said that, being ungracious on Twitter isn't a smart move either.

The fact that Tracey was impolite to us is no reason to be impolite to her. I agree with mosy's point that making 'fun' of her name is bad form and I'm sure she has heard them all these 'jokes' before - too many times.

Peace,

I'm going to make an appointment to visit Jim Dowd MP at one of his surgeries .
You see I've got a problem with a dodgy property developer thats blighting my neighbourhood and will be looking for his support in resolving the issue.

I think Purelake are getting a bit uncomfortable, they're taken down their Facebook page after the comments / ratings that went on their site!

Given that the Facebook page has been deleted, can I urge people to leave a Google review, as michael suggested a few days ago:
michael wrote:If you do a Google search on Purelake you can leave a review of the company there as well (possibly you need a Google+ account). The great thing about this is that Google controls the reviews, not Purelake, and it shows up prominently when anybody Googles them.
