Sent: 11/06 19:55 adge, good comments re yiddo, it must be worse than I thought in stainforth, give me the 5o's and 60's anytime when we had a decent stainforth which was not abused by the few like it is today. regards from stanley gardens Name: Adge Homepage: http://www.stainforthonline.co.uk/ Sent: 11/06 06:26 Yiddo, I see you are an AOL customer. Anyone in authority could get that information and more if they wanted to. Talking of "blowing up" anywhere in today's political climate isn't constructive and could get you into a lot of trouble. Your concerns over the kingsway area and the drug problems associated with the area are shared by many others in Stainforth. Why not go over to the forum and discuss your points there? We're a friendly bunch who'll discuss Stainforth's problems, history and anything else you'd care to chat about.

We regulary pass through Stainforth, and it is nice to be able to pass on some information to our passengers about the village ands its history.
