Wind Power, 1796

Over 200 years ago, here in Thornton wind was the main power. Now we seem to have gone full circle. We need to harness the wind again.

As we get older. We all deserve some support

As our days here tick away like a wind up clock, the mainspring getting weaker and each tick becomes more tiring it is nice to know that at the moment, when the spring does weeken there will be folk there to help the hand along the way. Sadly, we are being forced to hope that this help will be around in the future. The way the UK GOV is speeding through these cuts they SAY we need, we are not planning properly for the future. We think for a moment that things have settled and we can make plans, then another cut, like pulling the sticks from a game of Kerplunk. The marbles will trickle down as their support is removed until there are not enough sticks to sustain the marbles and they come crashing down. Us marbles need to stop our support being withdrawn. Too many will not be able to stop themselves hitting the bottom, some need extra sticks. Let us now work together to hold onto our sticks, and eachother, we are all gorgeous and ain't it gorgeous to meet and help gorgeous people. Take care or each other, be nice human beans.
