Why brother why did you left us =(
Alan was the best person i ever knew in my life...
I am allways asking myself why does God allways take the good people...
I cant accept the truth that he is gone and that he will never talk to
us again... No matter what i do i couldnt give him that what he gave
me,a real friend... Rest in Peace Brother...

Armin

alan will be remembered in my heart......i never thought i would get
such a shock....jean.....please convey my condolenses to edith..

                        R.I.P ALAN..

Big Al founded this site, and he will be dearly missed. What can one
say, he was such a great person. Charitable to the extreme. He was the
sort of guy it was a pleasure to say "yes" to. Donating to his efforts
was so pleasurable. "You're a star" he would say, no matter what the
donation amounted to - well Big Al, if I'm a star, you were the
sunshine that made me twinkle. RIP lad, I am certainly a better person
for knowing you.
Gordon.

Alan,

I am sorry but you have got some of this wrong ....The money came
mostly from Awards for All then from Brighter Borough Funding from
Atherleigh Cllrs Aldred, Turnock and self and a smaller amount came
from Wigan and Leigh Housing  - The residents have not paid for it
themselves -       -    by way of explanation -   myself and their
treasurer put the bids together -  The Bridgers would be upset by
the "no thanks"  because they have received thanks and praise from
their residents. Everyone is really pleased and I have been thanked
for the part I played on the bid the planting days and ordering and
filling the panniers.

  .... the "because no one else would pay for them" about town centre
baskets  sounds not quite right it was because there was no where
money could be found for a second year of "free" baskets ...the
traders were offered them free last year      -     I am  concerned
that business people may feel affronted !

The Council have played their part by watering the panniers in Howe
Bridge which is quite expensive for 30 panniers. approx £3,000 for
the year

and finally - The "paint job" does not belong to the council -
however the property does and as landlords and as conservation
officers they have asked for the paint to be removed which is not an
easy task  - which is  removing an oil based paint from porous bricks.


I just hope you message has not got anyone's back up

Susan
