The
time has come for me to
hang up my Web tools.
Due to the need to
maintain another Web Site
I must give up the
Earlsdon On-Line site.
If anyone wants to take it
over, please let me know
by writing to feedback
above. It would be a
shame to close the site
completely as it contains
a real snapshot of life in
the village - as well as
some impressive shots of
old Earlsdon.
Maintenance of the site
only takes about an hour
or two per week and there
are people around willing
to advise. So
... if you are interested
in having a go, drop me a
line before the end of
August. |

Application to replace

unit accommodation for

square feet shopping area,
the size of a supermarket
WAS PACKED! If you

The
Godiva Festival attracted
thousands of people as
usual with a range of
exhibitions and
activities. Here are

This
year the Festival was on a
number of sites.
Hearsall Common held the
main event and other
venues such as St.
Barbara's Church and the
Albany Social Club car
park drew people.
Due to the beautiful
weather, our investigative
reporters only managed to
get to the church and the
Social Club car park.
The pubs and wine bars
between venues may also
have had something to do
with it too!
Therefore, a small but
perfectly formed selection
of snaps from this year's
more local festivities.

their full screen glory!! |

Ironically, the High
Street was closed (see
below) on the day of the
festival. You will
recall that the main body
of the festival was
relocated to Hearsall
Common because of the cost
of things like the road
closure and general
safety. Perhaps
Severn Trent would like to
come back next year and
close the High Street
again (at no cost to the
residents) in order to
bring some of the festival
back to the centre of
Earlsdon. |
