GAZGOSSIP
It would seem that way back in Dec of 1876 the population of Whitehaven were experiencing
something akin to what we have all been going through in recent times.
It would also appear that they, like us, were looking forward to better times!!
IN LIKE MANNER THEY SEEMED TO BE EXPECTING BETTER AS WE ARE WITH MAY
ELECTIONS ON THE CARDS!!!
A GLAD NEW YEAR
IN WHAT THE EDITOR CALLS THE "STRAY NOTES " COLUMN HE GIVES THE IMPRESSION
THAT THEIR WEATHER WAS NO BETTER THAN OURS!!
WITH SYMPATHY FOR WOULD BE SKATERS THE SHOW WENT ON...ONLY WHAT
YOU WOULD EXPECT FROM HARDY WEST CUMBRIANS!!!
THE GOOD NEWS WAS THAT
ON THE OTHER HAND
ONE MAN AT LEAST SEEMS TO HAVE HAD A MEMORABLE DAY
DESPITE THE WEATHER!!
HAVE TIMES REALLY CHANGED I WONDER????
VANDALISM DRAWS THE EDITOR'S ATTENTION NEXT.
SEEMS TO BE A REASONABLE SUGGESTION!!!!
HE THEN GOES ON TO PRAISE THE OFFICERS OF THE LAW.
BY ALL ACCOUNTS THE POLICE WERE KEPT VERY BUSY FOR THE EDITOR SAYS:
AND HE IS VERY OUTSPOKEN ABOUT THESE 18TH C. HOODIES
MORE GOSSIP TO COME AS THERE ALWAYS IS !!!!
