My Village, Greenlaw  in Berwickshire, is taking part in the BBC Restoration Village programme and will be appearing this Friday night at 9 p.m. on BBC2.

Our Town Hall is falling down and like all the rest of the contenders are looking for cash for restoration.   If you visit the Web site you will see what a handsome building it was which  is in the centre of our village.  I have also contributed all the historical stuff to the web site. 

I would be delighted if some of my A4A friends watch the programme and look out for me.....  also vote for us.  thank you.

The phone number is  09013 600 500  to vote closing on Sunday 20th Aug.

Seeing as good old A4A had been sabotaged on Fri night, did anyone watch the programme?   

Oh well, never mind, there is no harm in trying to get votes for my home town.

Phone   09013 600 500 and vote for Greenlaw Town Hall.

At least I am persistent..... ::) ::) ::) ::)

Voted - the journey North on Friday was so bad with the weather I only just got in in time to see it.

Now I have an idea of what salmon go through swimming upstream!  Never seen so much water lying on the M6.
is it in the sale?

My idea was to build Liverpool into a bastion of invincibility. Napoleon had that idea. He wanted to conquer the bloody world. I wanted Liverpool to be untouchable. My idea was to build Liverpool up and up until eventually everyone would have to submit and give in. Bill Shankly.
