Caboose – Thanks to Leeds-Live, many Garfonians thought Caboose was still happening here in Garforth, opening this year they say. However, I’m afraid to say, they’re out of date by about 3 years!  Caboose is not happening as they have written in their ‘new opening article 2022’. I have been in contact with Leeds-List to ask them who their resource was, I’m still waiting to hear.

PAAARTY (now we can)

Do you have a big party or wedding coming up, do you need to know who can help you out locally from caterers to cake makers, balloon artists to flowers, bands to event organisers… Let me know, I can always point you in the right direction.  Even if you want someone to book your honeymoon, or an escape away to propose to that someone special… Gin Gin. yep, can organise a horsebox full of Gin to serve at your shindig too –  I know many people, and perhaps one’s you might just need to know too.  Christine@themaindeal.co.uk just ask.

 

Flatten my Roof

This year hasn’t gone without hitch for us or any of my friends and family.  Especially with all the wind, we have had over the last week.  We found our Gazebo over in the neighbours garden early hours Saturday morning, which we had to collect at 5.40 am in order it didn’t create any damage, luckily it hadn’t.  CLO Marquee also had some damage, twice which is closed off this section at the back, for now; mother nature can be a bugger.  At home, our roof has caused no end of bother, and for months and months, we have been scratching our heads to find the issue.  After much investigation (the insurance company not helping) we have finally found the problem.  The original builder who built our extension hadn’t built the flat roof properly, he basically cased it in with no ventilation, so for 11 years, our roof has been sweating.. what joy!  Luckily we have found a local company who seems to be a really good flat roof specialist, The Family Roofing Company over in Kippax who can help us sort and fix this almighty problem – Fingers crossed!

Planning

As mentioned in this week’s Vlog https://www.instagram.com/tv/CZeWShMrK3W/ and social media posts, an application for another takeout has been proposed for no. 147 Main Street, which is where the BIG ORANGE SIGN ‘corner shop’ currently resides.  Many people have been rejected for many reasons.  Two being obvious.  Traffic problems for both collection and delivery and the second, because we have enough services offering takeout options.

Here’s the link you need to have your say.  You will need to register, but it only takes a few seconds.   https://publicaccess.leeds.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=documents&keyVal=R5ZY7EJBJMY00
