I was only down there for about 2hours on Saturday but it was manned most of the day by a very kind lady and well done to her,but we have alot of callers from the public so yes it does show there is aneed for it.To keep you happy we are moving it over the next week or so,But I will tell you we have not been aske to move it. But we feel its new home is better for us.

I did not get there till about midday,But the lady was there ,I expect she went for a cupper or somthing. At this time we are not working to a time table.I will again be down there later in the week,I always post on here when I will be there.Richard is working on a time table for the summer weeks,but that is not easy when like myself can not tell him when I can make it.

I went down on Sunday again not manned and the seafront was very busy.
Im sorry but the more I look at it the more I feel like going down in the dead of night with a sledge hammer

Most places that are manned by volunteers have a rota when people are on and opening times are displayed, more business like and sensible that way.
Vic, there is nothing that special about volunteering it is what a great number of us oldies do all the time.

Some of us 'young(er)' ones put in an immense about of voluntary time on the Heights, but don't feel the need to tell everyone all the time !!
Been nice knowing you :)

Paul again I do not know where you are coming from on that one.
Again I have already said a time table is being done at this time ready from Easter onwards.

Paul you are right, you do a lot for the town, specially the White Cliffs etc. And Jan you are right too, a lot of oaps do a lot of unpaid voluntary work behind the scenes and we all apreciate their work. There is nothing worse than people who profess to do things for love not money but carp on about it to get patted on the head.
Well I say good on you Paul and Jan - and all of those who work in a quiet and humble way without asking for praise. What does it say in the bible - blessed are the meek ...........
There's always a little truth behind every "Just kidding", a little emotion behind every "I don't care" and a little pain behind every "I'm ok".
