Millitary Cutbacks




Owing to financial cutbacks military forces are having to reuse "old stuff we haven't used in ages" to save money. Here soldiers are seen reusing equipment from the early nineteeth centuary at the Great Yarmouth Maritime Festival.

Meanwhile the Royal Navy was showing to the public one of their reused "magnetic mine proof and 100% enviromentally aware" warships.

The Royal Airforce was unavailiable to comment until they had a firm offer on a user manual for some World War One biplanes they were thinking of using a source said yesterday.

Save our Seagull








September 9th protest to save the Seagull Theatre, Pakefield at Lowestoft.

A well turned out and peaceful event by local people in support of this cultural instution. The Seagull Theatre has been a positve influence and resource in the Lowestoft area and beyond in the last forty years. It was a school school since 1895. Earlier this year Suffolk County Council stopped funding the £60,000 a year theatre to save money but made this decision whilst spending £144,000 a year on snacks at meetings.

Stop it from being changed into a car park or building land.

The fight goes on.

Sign of the times...

Todays presentation was a success. The Residents Association accepted one of our designs for the village sign at Runham Vauxhall in Great Yarmouth. Myself and Mike Skipper gave the presentation. First step and there is still more work to be done.
