A Hot Monday Update
The signatures are coming in again after a quiet weekend. I hope it has something to do with the tremendous banner up opposite the pub - I’m told Don and Geoff’s creation looks the business! That will be something for Young’s to have a good look at when they come over to Epsom later this week.
On another encouraging note, we have some potential support on the cards from a great British media organisation and I’d like to thank the gentleman concerned for offering his time. The Epsom Lib Dems have also placed a link and our logo on the front page of their web site and the 3 councillors are behind us, as is our local MP Chris Grayling who has written to Youngs.
We are also dead chuffed to have the backing of John and the local CAMRA branch. Watch out for us at the 7th Kingston Beer Festival to be held on the 23 and 24th of June if anyone would like to volunteer and leaflet for us at this event please e-mail info@savetheriser.org
David Roberts is having some t-shirts printed from the design Paul Burman submitted to us last week, and he’s also plastered them on his car, so well done Paul - your poster makes people who see it smile. Simon has been dropping leaflets all over the place and the good folk from Puccino's on Epsom station have graciously given us permission to put up three leaflets and the poster in the middle of the shop over where the milk and sugar is, so they should get noticed a bit by the many commuters who pass through Epsom each day.
Yet more positive news, the gallery and web page have come on leaps and bounds since Friday, I disappear to Kent for a few hours and the webmaster goes mad. The Happy Chouffe Song! is a welcome addition and makes most people um, happy or somewhat bemused, hum along and read the new timeline section of our page.

This is a critical time for us all, Youngs now have one opportunity to show they can take us seriously and behave ethically - but if they chose to sow the wind of change at the Riser they must know that they will reap the whirlwind henceforth.
