Recession - a good thing?

There's always two ways of looking at what happens!

I met up with an old friend, Tony Crokery, one of identical twins, yesterday.

He made a very good point that the present financial crisis, though painful, would lead some of us to question our reliance on things, rather than people.

Areas of Ulverston where there are still strong community links - I'm thinking of one cul-de-sac in particular - will survive and support each other even more.

Those with high walls and fences will have the occasional chat as they peer through the slot of the chained door - I'm thinking of another cul-de-sac!

Perhaps the Art Trail that takes place in a week's time will be a step in the right direction!
