Some photo's below of the cut wires that had to have hours of manpower out to repair, this along with the problems it caused of having no phone contact for the shop's etc. If money is getting regenerated into the area then the last thing we need is for it to be spent like this when so many kids are enthusiastic and want good football,Boxing, skateboard, etc facilities in the area.Maybe Insurance pay's I don't know but then the premiums will go up and the risk of becoming a higher risk for insuring which will raise the cost. Catch 22 situation! No one wins!

Either during or after this spate of madness I have now been informed that the wires to the "emergency lifelines" that go to the elderly people's bungalows were also cut. These pull alarms are sometimes the only help someone living alone and infirm are going to get. These mindless yob's who are doing these things are not invisable someone somewhere can see what's going on and someone somewhere are closing their eyes to it. The old "I'm alright Jack" syndrome. The worrying thing is that a lot of this vandalism is not being done by what you would call Young adults, but by "children" most of whom should have been indoors long before their actions were taking place. Maybe a curfew would do the trick with an age limit for those wandering around after dark. Sorry state of affairs but something has to be done. The tragedy is that there are so many good kids in MaesG who get tarred with the same brush and their achievements are over shadowed by what the minority do. Some more incidents might get reported on the Forum as time goes on so if your interested or want something included just pop along over and write it in yourself or drop me a line.

I was very pleased this week when BBC wrote to me saying they had put a link to my site on theirs, so be assured our new's goes far and wide infact worldwide I know for a fact from the many mails I get.Link is below if you want to look and see how we get around.
