After all the HOO - HAR of the elections have been and gone, its time for me to get the cogs working on my / our "new" residents group..... Despite all the jovial banter about what to really call our "new" group, its been called Brooklands residents Representatives And has been for some time.........
The sole reason with the continuing with the name of "brooklands" as it header, is not to alienate the most prolific area at the forefront of any such regeneration plans, while including into its areas of at risk, will be both the Grasslands and village areas also...
"Residents" name must be used, as i for one are a "local - vocal" resident, and whatever groups effort i put my time and knowlege into, it has to be for the bennefit of myself, my family and all others too....
"Representatives" part of the name is self explanitry, quite simply put, i am representing all those who live in Jaywick, whether they like me or not, i still do my best for all of us all at the various meetings / boards and panels i sit and attend.... By doing this, its the very best way that i know of on just who, what , when and where, that things are going on, i get some input as to perhaps our futures....... Despite some "untrue rumors" of myself that have been doing the rounds of late, i`m still here, i`m still championing Jaywicks cause, i`m still going the way that i have been in finding solutions and possable cures for ALL the residents that want help in our wonderfull Jaywick..
Lets all look to the future for all of us in Jaywick, if we can all work together as a group, it can and will work.... .........IAN BURIT...Brooklands- Residents - Representatives-

Makes sense Ian, after all for a long long time, those that don't know tend to refer to Brooklands when they actually mean Jaywick. To the point when I worked in Colchester, many of the blokes I worked with did'nt really have a clue about Jaywick, but most knew of Brooklands and as is usually the case the opinion was far from complimentary. So I would say Brooklands Residents Representatives sounds good, the acronym BRR even makes sense, its time to come in from the cold ;D

OK, kind people, many thanks... I / we still have got to "keep the faith" as they say........ I know my post was a bit early, but did not want to conflict with any jubulations or sorrows tomorrow (friday) but at what time is / was, the best time to do it... Since the post, i have had interest coming from various parties who want to know more of whats going on, but this i will leave a few more days till the dust settles on our more imediate news worthy stories........
A "funny" story was that i met a nice couple in Town who knew that i had left the previous group, but were at a loss to find out any new information about Jaywick, the place they live in.. I explaned what i was doing, and was met with--thats great, as the only things we were told whats going on, were by you,(me).......To this i had to laugh....... It always has been my intentions to find out, to the best of my knowlege, just what is going on in Jaywick, as i cannot go and hide my head in the sand, and pretend its not happening...Its just not me.....Nosey i might be, but truth seeker is a better description.....
Anyone who wants / needs more information, phone me on the Brooklands Residents representatives hotline 07981 675927

Well its over a year since my last post on here. Our small group is still a small group, but with a big heart. We are not funded in ANY way shape or form, so, we can say whats on our minds without the worry of upsetting the hands that feed us. we dont get fed..........full stop.....
if we upset, we are sorry, if we are right, we are still sorry, but oh so happy to tell it how it really is.....
we do what it says on the box.. ........"un funded and free to choose".............
