FREE ARMLEY - THE MUSICAL A once-only opportunity to see an all-singing tale of love, laughter and property development set against the backdrop of a mill, a jail and a library – oh, and a moor with horses on it. Written by Armley’s own Boff Whalley and directed by Alan Lane and Justin Audibert.
FREE WACKY WALKABOUT CHARACTERS
Hodman Dodman and Sally Forth are firm favourites from last year – look out for this elderly couple of miniature proportions. The Fairly Fresh Fish Company will try to convince you to sample their cockles and muscles. And Alter Ego will take you on a tour of the museum – ask questions but don’t believe everything they tell you!
FREE SHEDOPOLIS

Are you kidding me? 100Mb or 1Gb symmetrical would be a start of actual “Internet”. Regardless of whether your area is served by the lovely cable/telco duopoly or not, communities NEED to own the underlying fibre infrastructure hosting reseller.
Cable companies and Telco’s are just used to having a defacto monopoly. They will do anything (legal or illegal) to protect it.
another huge ball of fire thrown into the already raging bonfire of initiatives. there’s so much smoke you can’t see any of them clearly at this point. what is clear is that the vast number of initiatives up for consideration makes it impossible to develop counter proposals to any of them. there basically aren’t enough hours in the day to be able to become conversant with what is on the table. this is the exact tactic obama used in putting forth the stimulus bill ecommerce web host. are there any investigative journalists out there who have been unable to connect the dots? is everyone on the obama payroll and unwilling to print the truth? why hasn’t the white house been exposed in their purposeful attempt to deceive the public low cost web hosting?
