Some e mails from well wishers
I would just like to say how delighted I was to read your refreshing take on Perthshire and its local councils. My family and I have, for many years disagreed with Council decisions. Take for example the cycle lane! Has anyone ever actually seen anyone cycling in it?? I think not! We certainly dont see the councillors getting out of as you say their "gas guzzling" motors to cycle down them to promote them! Another example being the amount of taxpayers money spent on the new concert hall. It beggars belief that we have a perfectly good City Hall to service those needs. It is reported that it will be working on a loss for the first 9 years of trading! Hmm wonder who will be paying for that!!! And all this so they can build some flashy new shoppers area at the City Hall, which lets face it will Perth people ever appreciate!! And to build big open air cafes! Is this Perth, Australia we are in?? No! Anyway I am so happy that their is finally someone who has had the nerve to stand up and say something and I fully back you all. My dad has always been very free on his speech regarding councillors and it is good there is other supporters of this. All hail you and keep up the good work. And as for Perth people being unwelcoming I couldnt agree more. If their noses were any further in the air they would be hitting the ceiling!.Regards One very happy reader.
P.S If you ever need any help researching anything give me a shout. I would be more than happy to help
Thanks for your reply. I would be happy for my comments to be added to your page. I am quite happy for my name to be added and will continue to visit your site regularlly. Funny how nobody seems to be taking ownership for the small businesses, many of which probably line the big cheeses pockets in some corrupt way! They will unfortunately not discuss it with you because the arguements they have will probably not stand up against your very truthful statments and suspicions. My dad has been a resident in Perth for a large part of his life and has had nothing but bother from the council. They currently live in a 3 bed 2 bathroom bungalow in the Western Edge of the town and are being charged much higher council tax than their next door neighbours who live in a 4 bed 3 bathroom bungalow. This has been going on now for almost 16 years and I find it appaling that they can get away with that sort of behaviour despite many phonecalls from my parents! It is no way to do business and I am sure my parents aren't the only ones. No wonder they have lots of fundings for their flowers!!! As we have always said the PA was wrongly named, correct letters, wrong name. It should stand for Perth Arseholes!! Anyway it is great to finally have a website set up to discuss these thoughts. Keep up the good work. Claire
Your site is just great and so sadly true what you write! I had enough of Perthshite and his people .....and moved to Edinburgh. Keep up the good work Marco
Hi, more than welcome to use it! Is such a shame that wonderful area is ruined by a such a bunch of people I am still often around Crieff...my mother lives there...but will move shortly...may be our road will cross somewhere... All the best
Great news, keep strong! The ones who speak the truth have the hardest ride in this world of lies, but in the end they land on top of the pile, and the liars sit below chewing on a wasp. Put that on the site as an encouraging email!. Martin
