Changes to the Arcade

by beeny on March 11, 2008, 03:28:00 PM

The Arcade has now changed. Unregistered Guests will now have access to 20 of the games and are now allowed to record scores. Registered Members will have access to games dependant on their contribution to the Forums. More Forum contribution, more games. Only 15 posts in the Forum's gives you access to 100+ games. More details in the Arcade Forum. Sorry if this causes any inconvenience to current members.

What is Scribbles?

by beeny on March 10, 2008, 02:40:00 PM

Scribbles is the replacement site for Baxenden Online. That consisted of three sites, Baxenden Online, Baxenden Online Forum and Baxenden Foto Gallery. Not very convenient as each required a separate Registration. That has been rectified by Scribbles. One Registration unlocks all doors.
Registration is, I'm afraid, a necessary evil. From past experience leaving the site open, as I would prefer to do, unfortunately attracts the web sites that will use this site as an advertising outlet for pornography, drugs and gambling. As I have to pay for this site (its freely given to visitors and members) I start feeling a bit miffed if others use it as an advertising outlet. I hope you will understand my reasons for Registration.
The Games Arcade has been expanded on the new Scribbles site. Registered Members will have access to over 100+ games whilst Guests will have access to 10 games. However, all visitors will be able to record their score. See the Arcade Forum for further details. Please consider Registration, it is quite painless and does have some advantages.
Suggestions for the Forums are welcome. If you would like a Forum on your particular interest send me a Personal Message (PM) from within the site and I'll see what I can do.
Help with using the site is available under the 'HELP' menu button. The help section is quite comprehensive but if, after looking through the help files, you still need assistance please leaves me a Personal Message (PM) from within the site.
Any questions/problems 'click' on the Comments button below.

And Finally, enjoy!

Can you help Scribbles?

by beeny on March 09, 2008, 10:43:00 AM

We really do. Are you a Baxendener? Do you still live in Baxenden or do you now live elsewhere? Have you memories about Baxenden? Do you remember the mills, the pubs and clubs, the mines, the railway, the five arches, Shoe Mill, Warmden Clough and more. If so we would love to hear from you. We are trying very hard to fill in what we can of the missing history of Baxenden, Rising Bridge and Stonefold. As people get older and pass on the history of this lovely area passes on with them and is lost. We are simply trying to catch what we can of history before it is lost. We sincerely hope that you will aid us in this quest. If you would like to have a quick look at our Baxenden History Scratchpad then Click Here

If you don't wish to join our friendy Forum then you could click the 'Comments'' menu item below and leave us a note.

Baxenden Community Forum Appeal

by beeny on March 09, 2008, 07:00:00 AM

The Wildlife Trust are putting a proposal forward to make Woodnook Vale and Priestly Clough a Nature Reserve. Phil Dykes from The Wildlife Trust attended the February 08 meeting of The Baxenden Community Forum and asked if anyone knew of any formal review of the wildlife, flora and fauna in the area which could be used in the proposal. He would be interested in any statistics on birds, bats, deer, foxes, badgers or other wildlife and any information formally gathered on trees, shrubs, flowers and plants in the area. Please reply to this message via this site or contact any of the members of The Baxenden Community Forum with any information.

I would like to see the old railway line designated as a Nature Reserve - how about you? Please help if you can.

Gimme a job, please

by beeny on March 05, 2008, 12:53:00 PM

A jobless man applied for the position of 'office boy' at Microsoft. The Human Resources (HR) Manager interviewed him, and then gave him a test. After that the HR manager said "You have the job. Give me your e-mail address, and I'll send you the application form to fill in and a date to start".
