Hola los shroomies, (or is that las shroomies)

I Have stickied the petition post that Lisa made to the top of this board. (You'll see that as moderators of this board you can sticky stuff as well)

I think that this board where it is is fine just so long as conversation within it is restricted to subjects about the construction of Golf courses and the associated building and environmental impact...

Separate topics for different subjects.. there must dozens of plataformas en la defensa del campo y contra las golf. Maybe we can find the people and get some of them posting their particular problems... ie the Ronda problem that i have moved to this board.....

Why don't you add a sentence to the stickied post to make sure people understand that they can click the link to go to the petition site to ...

Then after that lock this thread as it is 5 pages long now and pretty much explains why you started the petition....

Hello Shroomies, Forumites, my fellow gregarians, etc. etc.

Sorry to be so slow in following up some feedback queries, especially to SueMac.

I've made a new topic called 'A Question of Language' (http://www.iberianatureforum.com/index.php/topic,632.0.html) which I think addresses, or at least dwels upon, some of the points raised by the petition, including SueMac's point about our dipping our feet quite publicly in the murky world of politics and pressure groups.

It's rather long so be warned!

PS SueMac; I can even remember Mrs Dale's Diary, although at that time I believed that they all lives behind the blank screen of the telly when the dial was turned to 9 (well, I think it was '9' it was forty-five years ago!)

I have embedded a direct link to the petition site on the Spanish-language summary.

Greetings All,
Have just checked Petition site to get end-of-month update:

Petition Day 18
As of 12:10 p.m. on 30th August 2007 there were 18 signatures, averaging, if my figures are correct, one a day.

For those of you us interested in mindless stats., this is a drop to exactly half the average at last count. However, August is peak season for tourist destinations, and I'm sure there is a direct inverse relationship with petition-signing and am likewise sure that as people return to their normal routines, including petition signing, this downward trend will cease. With winter drawing nearer, the snowball effect will come into play and more and more people will ...

Regs.,

I am locking this topic now as it is 5 pages long and pretty much explains why the petition started.
