It's that time of year when the evenings get dark all too quickly, and
we get prepared for what autumn and winter has to throw at us. And
getting a powdering of snow in Chorleywood on Saturday morning at the
start of the Autumn half-term week was a bit of a surprise! Autumn Newsletter It's the culmination
of several months of work for the editorial team, and a busy weekend for
our driver Mike who has been delivering the bundles of the newsletter
to our Area Reps. The Association is very grateful to our Area Reps as
they will be distributing the latest edition of the Chorleywood
Newsletter and if necessary call upon residents for their subscriptions
to support the work of the Association. If you're a paid up member and
have not had your newsletter in the next two weeks please let us know.
Have
you got a bloke in your household who's over 45? Is he going to the
Prostrate roadshow on Monday evening at the Memorial Hall? If not - why
not? FOPS have put a great deal of effort into setting up the roadshow event, I'm sure him and his team would be very happy to see you - The FOPS Roadshow - 29 Oct 2012
There's
still time to get in touch with us to let us know about your local
priorities for Highways in Chorleywood. We'll be meeting with our local
County Councillor in a couple of weeks and the more feedback you can
give us, the better case we can make for Chorleywood. To find out more
read the article What needs fixing in Chorleywood?
Our involvement with the MetTimes campaign continues, and we'll be targeting some travellers on off-peak trains this week with some flyers. Find out more at MetTimes: Campaign to Improve Metropolitan Line services and don't forget to write to our MP, TfL and maybe London TravelWatch.
