Catch22
Ready or Not
Ready or Not calls on the Government to formally recognise young adulthood, from 16 to 25, as a specific life stage and ensure policies and services are better coordinated, better suited and more relevant to young people struggling to make the transition to adulthood.
Becoming a fully independent adult doesn’t happen overnight, nor on any given birthday. It’s a gradual process which moves at different speeds for each young person.
2010
It’s a new year, fresh with new possibilities. There are many reasons to be optimistic about 2010, but it doesn’t come without its challenges. This year, we need to take a hard look at our food system, identify the problems, and make the changes necessary to ensure that safe, healthy food is available to all. We need to overhaul our school lunch program, and eliminate the use of growth hormones in dairy operations. Let’s crack down on pollution from industrial farms, and improve living conditions for the animals within them. It’s a tall order, I know.
Seasons Greetings
On behalf of the Edge Lane Allotment Society Commitee I would like to wish everybody a very merry Christmas and a very wealthy and healthy new year.
I would also like to mention that in 2010 Jessica Mayo plot no. ?? will be delivering our youngest allotmenteer,
so If anyone sees her doing anything strenuous, silly, unhealthy (smoking) (drinking) etc, etc, then stop her as we must make sure our future allotmenteers are of a healthy standard. Hey we can,t wait any excuse for a party.

Exchange Theatre Manchester Nov 2009
First off, if you have never been to the Theatre I can highly recommend it with seating prices starting from as little as £10 and like me you could make a night of it by having a meal out so, you can have a good night out for as little as £20,(depending how much you drink!)
