A Nice Place To Be
At the last coffee morning we talked about the next one and people felt that as it was Easter there wouldn’t be so many folk around and besides they would be eating their Easter eggs. So, no coffee morning on the 30th so we’ll have to save all of the news until April, when there’s a very special event so save the date and see you there.
It’s a sell out event and we’re really excited to see you at Adderley Village Hall on the 6th April.
In order to ensure that everybody gets their preferred menu choice we really need you to make your menu choices as early as possible so that we can tell chef what he needs to prepare.
So, if you haven’t done so already please click the link below: complete the tick box form for you and your guests and add your name and contact information to the bottom. Then click Submit and your menu choices will wing their way to us.
Many thanks in advance and here’s to a fab evening of food and great company.
We’ve been blown away by the demand for tickets for this event. If you were thinking of coming to what’s promising to be an excellent evening then there are only 12 tickets remaining. This event is restricted to 40 tickets.
There will be a choice of starters and mains with a meat and vegetarian options. There’s antipasti and a sweet course. Each table of 6 gets a bottle of wine as part of their ticket price. There will be a sommelier introduction to other wines available on the evening.
So click the link below to purchase your tickets and don’t forget to follow the link to let us know your menu choices before the event.
We’re really pleased! Thanks to the wonderful volunteers we have started uploading records to the Adderley Heritage database and you can now search them online. Simply click the link below to go to the Adderley Heritage website and Search The Geoff Butter Collection.
Searching is easy just enter a keyword such as Canal or Railway or Raven House and it will show you what’s already there. If you’re really keen you can use the advanced search to refine what you’re looking for. You can also check out the timeline and proposals for the heritage trail, coming soon.
So far we have about 500 records up there but there are another 2000 to go so we need more volunteers to train on how to prepare records to be uploaded. Interested? Contact us at trustees@adderleyheritage.co.uk and we can arrange a short training session and you’re on your way. You will need access to a laptop or desktop computer unfortunately you can’t easily do this on a tablet.

Last week we posted information about communications from BT saying that they thought we were leaving them for another supplier. We later learned that people with Sky were also affected by these spurious e-mails. If you missed it you can read the piece here.
We contacted BT who said they didn’t know who had requested the change (companies can do that?) but they had cancelled it. Then on Wednesday we had a letter through the post telling us, again, that we were leaving BT. We contacted them again and, yes, the system said we were leaving to a company called IVS, who don’t seem to exist. This time we escalated, got an apology and reassurances that it was definitely cancelled.
What happened next? We were put in touch with OfCOM. They told us that the practice was called Slamming where a third party cancelled your line without your permission and then offers you a new service. How can this happen? OfCOM are now investigating. If you have been a victim of this Slamming you are urged to contact OfCOM 0207 981 3040. They were very helpful and have promised a response in the next 5 days. We wait and see.
