So we’re going to have a TLERA meeting then? That’s good. It means I (and all the other previously-inactive TLERA members I’ve been talking to) will be able to come along and say thank you to the TLERA committee who give up so much of their time for us – doing all sorts of things that many residents probably don’t even know about..... like arranging for the hill to be gritted so we’re not cut off again , negotiating with the council, helping out whenever residents ask, and so on.

I saw Jason’s suggestion that TLERA should be wound up by a 2/3 majority and the funds given to a pro-Piplings TLERA. From what I’ve seen of some pro-Piplings people on this forum (with their untruths, scaremongering about other businesses and nasty personal comments) I can hardly see them doing anything for anyone else, let alone working as tirelessly for our benefit as the TLERA volunteers we’ve got now.

No thanks. We all know when we’re well off and we’ll stick with the TLERA we have, thank you. The only good thing that has come out of all this is that now everyone’s talking about it and finding out the truth.
