Alternative bookshop in Bristol closes

Bristl'er, 29-08-2005 00:09

After 23 years of community service, Bristol's last remaining alternative community bookshop has closed.

Hands around Coate Water

Simon, 13-11-2004 19:06

On a cold but clear and sunny Saturday afternoon, the edge of the lake at Coate Water was bounded by a chain of over a thousand cardboard cut-out hands, each with someone's personal dedication of why Coate is special to them, held aloft by Save Coate! campaigners and supporters. Will this be enough to convince Swindon Borough Council, Redrow & Persimmon Homes, and the University of Bath, that we want Coate Water Country Park to remain a country park, not a town park surrounded by concrete?

Who gives a **** about Swindon Town Centre?

Simon, 19-09-2004 21:21

On Saturday the 18th September 2004, two very different ideas were being presented to the public in the Brunel centre in Swindon. One concerned the town centre, and the other concerned the land at the south-eastern edge of Swindon, known as Coate. One was being promoted by employees of a local planning company, the other by volunteers for a local charity.

Although these two stalls may have appeared unrelated to the casual observer, they were in fact inextricably linked, by the University of Bath and by issues of town planning, development and accountability to the public. Read more | 2 comments >>

Simon, 25-07-2004 21:15

sunshine, 25-06-2004 13:38

With rain widespread before the solstice and a bad forecast, the number at this year's 'managed access' solstice celebration at Stonehenge (approx 21,000) was down by between one third to one half of the previous year. It still rocked though, and the issues remain as relevant today as they were ten or twenty years ago... Read more | 10 comments >>
