FaceBook / FourSquare / Litter / SMEG Fridges Leaking Problem
FaceBook – http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=72219004987
It might be of interest to know that City Island has a FaceBook page, and it has been used with some success in helping people with various issues, such as inappropriate parking, and it is also how we have had some success with the litter problem (see below), as well as all the usual FaceBook friendliness, networking, requests for help, advertising events, etc., etc. Just click on the link below to get to the City Island FaceBook page, or alternatively, just search for “City Island Leeds” from within FaceBook, and join up.
FourSquare – http://foursquare.com/venue/860419
And while we are looking at the interweb, City Island is also a FourSquare location. So, next time you are here, check in, leave tips, and see who is about. Currently MsTallica is the Mayor and I can’t displace her no matter how many times I check in (Grrr) – see if you can.
Litter – Some Progress
Lots of people have emailed the council, Hilary Benn MP, and in some cases British Waterways as well to try and get the disgusting state of Gotts Road and the surrounding areas sorted out. We are having some success, and have even heard that Hilary Benn has “received several complaints and has escalated to the council”. So, if you haven’t already, then please email your complaint to both refusecollection@leeds.gov.uk and bennh@parliament.uk.
If you have already complained, and regardless of whether you have received a response or not, you can raise this to a stage II complaint, by writing to:
Jane Charlton,
Departmental Customer Relations Officer,
Knowsthorpe Gate,
Leeds, LS9 0NP
And telling her that you either have not received a response, or that you have received a response, and that it was unsatisfactory as Gotts Road and the surrounding areas remain litter-strewn.
SMEG Fridges – leaking water internally.
This might save a few people a few quid.
If your SMEG fridge develops a fault whereby it starts leaking, and accumulating water in the bottom, this is due to a drainage hole at the back of the fridge becoming blocked. The hole is in the middle of the “V” shaped recess on the back wall of the fridge, and it can be unblocked using the end of a cable tie or pipe cleaner or some other similar device.
If you can’t sort it out yourself, or you have another fault, you might want to give this guy a call, as he was excellent with us, and sorted this out and a couple of other minor annoyances:
