Damien Nettles: Music Event For 15 Year Anniversary

This Wednesday sees the 15 year anniversary of of the disappearance of Damien Nettles.

Damien NettlesDamien was a 16 year old teenager when he went missing on the Isle of Wight on the evening of 2 November 1996.

Although many leads have been followed over the years, no firm answers to Damien’s disappearance have been forthcoming.

Appeal for the truth
This devastating lack of closure for Damien’s family and friends prompts regular appeals from them for anyone with information to come forward and share the truth.

A special event is taking place on Sunday (6th November) in memory of Damien and friends, family and supporters of the campaign to find out the truth behind Damien’s disappearance are very welcome.

It takes place at The Princess Royal in Cross Lane, Newport between 2pm-6pm and features live music from Gareth Icke, EnglanE, Jack Gorman, Jo Walkden and Chris Dare.

I think Tesco has competition from Sainsbury’s: have you seen the vast monolith that Newport Sainsbury’s is becoming? Could probably house parliament if they fancied a move to the Isle. I’m boycotting Sainsbury’s on the grounds of aesthetics. It’s become too ugly to shop in. (And I never go near Tesco anyway.)

Tesco know all about value, service and efficiency and if they took over the IOWC, how could we lose? Council tax two-for-one vouchers etc.
It is a real possibility, because it seems that no council can stand up to the powerful and mighty Tesco.

For all the hippies out there:

After attending the Planning Enquiry for the rebuild of Tescos in Ryde 4 years ago, and having seen what an efficient organisation they have, I have always said we should employ them to run the Island; we would probably pay something like 25% of the current Council Tax. However I do not like Tesco or Asda or any of these enormous companies (yet again big is not… Read more »

I won’t use them either, but I must admit to a grudging respect for them! Here in central Ryde, it’s the Co-op (formerly Somerfield) a very amateur organisation. Tesco, much as I hate to say it, know how to run a supermarket. The Co-Op doesn’t and should give it up.

An excellent idea. The council have no idea how to run anything competently. Unfortunately, they have no idea how to sell anything off either, nor are they any good at closing things down. The present Leader could get a job there – perhaps on the self service tills? Tesco would make an excellent job of running the Island. Why not let them run schools and ‘ospitals too?… Read more »

Why would Tesco be good at running a Council? They may be good at running supermarkets but that is all. Their Banking, Insurance, Phones etc. are all licensed they do not run themselves. As their business model is to increase market share thus making more profit from smaller margins how would that transfer to running a council? IWC already has 100% of the Isle of Wight there… Read more »

The quality press ran an article on Morrisons at the weekend – the guy running that wants to stick to food and not carry loads of washing machines etc; if you have to use these places, and let’s face it, most of us are under some kind of pressure to ‘get it done’ Morrisons at least seem to be trying to make the ‘experience’ less akin to… Read more »
