Zoe Piper, The Internet And Everything

Archive for August, 2008

I previously talked about a couple of flaws with Neighbours United; namely, not being able to see your neighbours, and the fact that membership hadn’t reached a high enough level to make it interesting. Well, the site managers have sent out a message through their Facebook group asking current members to invite all their friends to join the website.

This could be a great way to spread the word about the site – although it relies on people having a Facebook account and I imagine the majority of Neighbours United’s demographic don’t. I think Harrogate’s top of the list when it comes to “older” people joining Facebook however – maybe because of the number of internet entrepreneurs who live here (really, there are loads!).

I’d love to help out but to be honest I know about ten people in Harrogate. I’ve only lived here six months and my social life still revolves around Leeds and the tiny little village where I grew up!

Stump Cross Caverns

Frog and I took a trip to Stump Cross Caverns near Pateley Bridge. It was a great start to the holiday – £6 to get into an underground wonderland. Part of it was flooded so we had some impromptu climbing to do :) Here are some pictures:

Then last night we stayed up late and watched the Perseids from our front garden :)
