Oh yeah, it was a road census in Kettleshulme, but ATHENA could have written the headline!!!

Enough Mr Summers please.

People should reasonably expect to be able to post on the forum without this sort of response. It puts people off using the forum and it adds nothing to it. 

Cheers

Point taken Jon, but curious to know if you consider the headline "Drug Raid and Arrests in Horwich End" to add to this forum? I was only trying to make that point!

The topic header was accurate and summarized the content of the Buxton advertizer story that was provided via the 'link' supplied.It was of local interest.

Good evening.


I tend to agree with Chairman Jon the Whaley One.

It could be argued that Athena's topic heading was underplaying the situation as Derbyshire Police are now confirming drugs and equipment were seized, arrests were made, and the find is being treated as a suspected cannabis farm.

Police enquiries are continuing.

Well, I was going to let this lie, but now another over-the-top response!!! Firstly the initial headline: where does it ever mention RAID in the report? Since when is a knock on the door, entry and search a raid? I'm sure after reading this OTT headline most people pictured a van of SWAT police smashing the door down at dawn!!!
Then comes Horwich Enders input: DRUGS FARM!!! Where does it say anything in all reports that it's being treated as a Drugs Farm?
Such dramatisation may sell newspapers (where the headline & story seldom match) but does not do service to this forum.....which surely is the point JG was trying to make

Good afternoon Jonny.


I appreciate you posted early in the morning but I think you have misquoted me.

Where did I say “DRUGS FARM!!!” ?

I simply provided a link to the official Derbyshire Constabulary website which has the headline:

 

Arrests made after police find suspected cannabis farm in Whaley Bridge home

 

Are you suggesting Derbyshire Police have made an “over-the-top response!!!” ?

I agree with Chairman Jon the Whaley One when he says this topic is of “local interest” and I thank Athena for bringing it to the attention of forum readers.

....& so you in turn misrepresent me.... I never disagreed that the story was of interest, it certainly is. It was the dramatisation of the headline that I thought was too much!!!
