Tintern discussion board

Here’s our very own interactive community notice board.

Looking for a lift to London next weekend? Or maybe a good home for the spare toaster? Perhaps the cat went for a walk and hasn’t come back. Whatever you’re looking for, whatever’s on your mind that you’d like to communicate to others in Tintern, this is the place to do it.

Just one request. Keep all postings polite and decent.

 

All postings will be subject to publication at the absolute discretion of the site management.

    Does anyone else think it would be good to have some kind of village shop run as a co-operative and staffed by volunteers? Quite a challenge I know, but great things can be done when the community pulls together – as this new website shows!

      Similar to the Brockweir village shop?

      • Brian Ellam

        Yes David – imagine a rebuilt village hall with state of the art green technology, community shop full of local produce, cyber-cafe, local library…………

      Brian, it’s a great idea and something Tintern needs. It’s a challenge for sure but, as you say, great things can be done when the community pulls together.

    Well done to geting the Tintern website live, I’m sure it will help locals keep in touch with whats going on. However to make the site more popular with those outside Tintern I think you should have some content for all the walkers who visit the area -such as details of the walks that can be taken, what wildlife we have in the area. This would make Tintern an even more interesting area to visit. PIctures and a section on “where the locals go” could really help.

    • tintern_online

      David, you are quite right and having content relating to walks, wildlife and the outdoors in general is an important part of the site plan. If anyone has any good and reliable walk descriptions for Tintern and nearby that they’d like to share, please use the contact form on the site. (They’d need to be free of copyright so could not be lifted directly out of existing guide books.)

    What a fabulous resource for the residents of Tintern. Forums like this really allow a community to communicate and foster a sense of togetherness- bravo, tintern_online!

    Does anyone know of any local ‘house’ cleaners?  We’re looking for a cleaner to come for about 4hrs a week.

    Great to find your Tintern website, I’ve missed not having updates on the old village I once lived in, I have fond memories of my childhood and teenage days, Family history is my hobby and Tintern was a very big part of it, even though we kids thought the Abbey would be a much nicer place when they finish it and put the roof on.
    I wish you all the very best of luck with the site.
