tedp6873 Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Not sure where to start but here goes. There are a few of us on here who have formed a group to try and get the War memorial at Haymarket to stay in its current location or move it to the Original site, I have started a petition on line and would like everyone to sign this. The reason for this petition is the council want to move the Memorial to Atholl Crescent and we dont think this is an option. Please can this be made a Sticky Mods and also posted into the Shed.

tedp6873 Posted September 25, 2008 Author Share Posted September 25, 2008 Where is Atholl Crescent? On the Way to Princess Street along from the current Location. It would be stuck in the Green bit of grass behind some trees, there is always the other thing that the council might pull out the hat saying its not getting put back at all.:eek: and all that will be there is a small plaque.

I have to choose an amount, $0 isn't an option. Anyone else? It asks everyone to make a donation, you do not have to do so, as soon as you press submit on the front page your name is added to the petition. You can then just close the tab if you wish.

You would hope so, especially with 811 members being logged on at this time and throughout most of the day, yet only 160 signatures and a lot of them are probably from outside JKB. Early days i know.

Gambo Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Okay dokey folks, we need someone with an outlet on .net to go in and save the thread on there. Some are objecting to it being called 'The Heart of Midlothian War Memorial' and are focusing on this instead of the issue at hand. I've previously been emptied from there so cant help.

Early days i know. I don't think people notice stickies.... Wonder if the mods would let me away with starting a new thread on the terrace with a link to this one in it? For example, this thread has had 252 views...the thread entitled 'This Messageboard' was started less than an hour ago and already has over 350 views. There's over 1100 people online right now too.
