1. No Superstores in Ulverston 
Ulverston is one of the last market towns in England with a working local economy and an independent character. Now this is under threat from a proposed new superstore.
We want to stop this happening. See www.keepulverstonspecial.co.uk for more about our campaign.
2. It's time to see Laurel and Hardy back on TV
In recent years Laurel and Hardy movies have not been seen on television. Despite this at least 10,000 people globally meet up regularly -- mostly once per month -- to watch Stan and Ollie's capers on the big screen.
I run Northern Ireland's only branch of the worldwide Laurel and Hardy Appreciation Society and we have people from age 4 to 94 in our 'tent'. I worried about how we could get away with silent movies with so many young children present but the kids tell us that their favourite movies are often the silent ones. So come on all you TV executives, take a chance and see how the public react to Laurel and Hardy.
If the Sons of the Desert organisation is anything to go by we think you'll be both surprised and delighted.
