Yet more trolley (in)activity
by konceptual99 ini am currently having to spend a little time waiting for an appointment in the vicinity of a central london station.
whilst waiting i am catching up on some work in a cafe.
i can see a couple of trolleys and have been watching them for around an hour now.. not one person has stopped to take literature.

Not one person has stopped to take literature. They have had a couple of lost tourists and a couple who were obviously Witnesses come and say hello. The only other attention they have had is some stares in the direction of one of the sisters from passing white van men. There are literally hundreds of people walking past every 10-15 mins. There is zero effort to engage with the public - not even making eye contact and smiling.
I appreciate this is not exactly breaking news but it is yet further confirmation that the new approach is just as much of a waste of time as the traditional D2D work.

You seemed to be paying a lot more attention than I was!
The fact that the best coffee was to be had from the mobile stall at Falmer station didn't help either....

So there were 9600 odd at Brighton today. The number baptised was 32. 19 & 13 - but I can't remember which way round it was as I was dozing.
The upside was that I met BluesBrother. It was a shame we did not have long to chat but it was great to put a face to a name and a pleasure to meet him!

Jw's featured in the mags who later left?
by purrpurr ini was just wondering if any of those jw's who got their story told or featured as "a fine example" in the publications, if they ever left the org later?
i mean i know regular jw's would probably never hear about it but i thought maybe you guys might?

Can't remember the exact brochure right now but one of the ones with a photo of a family had a guy that apparently left later on and the picture was redone win a new person.
I don't think that's the only case either.

Each to his or her own Konceptual. If the rest of the UK was run like Brighton no one would travel anywhere if they wanted something more powerful than a bicycle. Don't go in for the lentil eating sandal wearing car hating lifestyle myself.
If you want a city by the sea try Portsmouth. Proper maritime history there!Love bits of Pompey especially around Southsea and the Naval Dockyard. Dunno what you mean about no cars in Brighton. They go everywhere.
Surely we can both agree Southampton really is a dump ;-) sorry cantleave! Having said that, all my in laws are over there!

Indeed Jook. I don't think they have assigned many more than around 10k. Actually putting 30k in the Amex would be quite tough as it's bad enough logistics wise for a football game here.
