amal: sexy girl
amal: hi bye
Graham: Capt Scott - you might be interested to note that wood fuel burning is actually carbon nuetral, unlike fossil fuel produced electricity and gas. Cheers, Graham
capt scott: CONGRATULATIONS !!. You have won First Prize for The Scruffiest and Untidiest Site in Essex.It is so badly managed that "THE ANT" needs to shed some of his surplus energy in sorting it out. No its not cleaner than our streets.Where's your carbon footprint. Burning wood and belching out smoke
Grym: Hi, I'm using Parklife as a part of my A level communications course, chosing to promote it and make students aware of the issues around the park for a project - I was wondering if anybody from the camp would be available as an 'expert' that is, someone I can show my posters/t shirts ect promoting the cause to and gather feedback from them? It's entirely non profit, just ot make people aware ofthe cause and hopefully get me a good grade for my exam! :) I tried emailing but as mentioned by a few
pylon: BTW, one offensive comment was posted from the same IP as Fitzy.
pylon: Offensive comments have been removed. If you want to criticise then keep it clean. Offensive comments were all posted from the same 2 IP addresses : 86.132.98.138 and 85.12.80.1 (this is a school in Southend)
stott: up date on the camp please the last up date was on the 16th jan .07
Charlotte Dove: Heya, how's everything going? Anything new happening? Keep up the good work!xxx
timmy: oh go shove it graham
Graham: As usualinteresting that the so called 'critics' don't have the courage of their convictions to leave valid email addresses...
Fitzy: Hi you lot! Just want to say good luck and when i can im there for you!
Capt Scott: now that you are the unlawful custodians of some old warlords burial site it would be incimbent upon you to tidy up the site by cutting the grass, disposing of the excess vegetation and weeds and maling the site more presentable. You do very little else apart from moan and winge. An on site hairdressers would not come amiss-moreso as you are a scruffy load of environmental outcasts this planet has bno time for. Why not go back to thhe old woods on Wood Avenue, Hockley where your presence caused
dan , age 14: i think widening the road will make journeys more difficult because of the bridge at the top. But maybe people think like that if Camp Bling wasnt such an eye saw. My friends tut at the state of the place. Tidy it up and then you will get loads more people on your side. You may beleive strongly about your case but that doesnt give you the right to make it look like a tip
stott: sorry to hear the bad news about last sunday .. hope you saved the trees , am thinkind of you lot ever day . ps hi to jag

jaq: Hi Graham, didn't take it as a criticism in any way at all, I think the only good to come out of all this is a general feeling amonst the public that the council does not consult locals or care about the environment at all. Hopefully people will now have a better understanding of why we have taken protection of the land into our own hands , we can only hope!
Graham: Hi jaq, I realised that, wasn't intending to criticise Bling, just fuming taht whilst the public's attention is focussed on you folks the council can have the audacity to butcher even more trees without a word of protest, because, as you say, nobody knew about it...
jaq: Hi Charlotte, we will be starting the Tea Parties again soon, amongst other events, so watch this space! x Graham, The Gunners massacre was a fine example of local democracy in practice, i.e. nobody was consulted so nobody new until they walked their dogs and noticed something was a miss....... x
Charlotte Dove: is there anything planned in the new future? xxx
Graham: Whilst supporting Cap Bling and all it stands for, its a shame that these trees were lost with no outcry at all, did anybody ebven know it was planned? All to build a road to sevice the yuppy housing estate at the old Garrison...
JAQ: We will have a Parklife stall in the town centre on Saturday 3rd March, pop by and see what YOU can do to help stop this road.

Pylon: I have deleted a deeply offensive entry by Roadbuilder. He lives in Southend and has a Blueyonder broadband connection - I won't put any more info on here, but I do have more. Maybe he would like to meet some of the residents and decide for himself what we are.

One Year On!

Camp Bling was instigated one year ago by local people and members of the Parklife resident’s campaign group, to stop the controversial widening of the A127/A1159 Priory Crescent , felling of 111 trees, concreting of 3000m2 of public open space, and destruction of the world famous East Saxon king’s burial discovered in 2003.

Since then the campaign has continued in earnest, with regular public meetings, lobbying, petitioning, direct action, and a number of well attended events at the ever growing site, which continues to thrive on a 200m strip of land situated between the existing road and Liverpool Street railway line, in the very heart of town.

The camp held an open house on Saturday 23rd September to thank the public for their amazing support over the past 12 months.

A spokesperson said, "The plan is to keep the event low key, as our purpose is simply to stop the road and protect the land for the people of the town. To this end we welcome everyone to join us to celebrate what in effect has become a wonderful community project, and an opportunity for local people to stand up collectively for what they believe in."

The latest estimated cost for construction is now £25m - not including site eviction or security - which the Department for Transport has yet to make an announcement on providing; to widen 870 metres of carriageway which it has been claimed could well become the most expensive stretch of road ever to be built. Costs have continued to spiral since an original figure of £3.5m was agreed with central Government in December 2000.

In an effort to thwart the project, it is rumoured that one of the deepest protest tunnel systems ever known has now been dug, to enable the site to be defended from any eviction, whether legal or illegal, by the local authority, should the road be approved.

To date it is estimated that over 25,000 signatures and letters have been collected in opposition. Just 16 (sixteen) local people were found in favour of the scheme during public consultation, and a recent newspaper poll shows the majority still against the road.

The campaign continues…
