But to be fore warned is to be fore armed . Everything we decry as a result of this relentless public tear down campaign in the way of tarnishing and undermining the Parsonage may be the campaign's actual goal. Museums around the world are under such pressures and attacks and it's for their holdings , not to save the collections . I sincerely hope my concerns are groundless Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05033117202223821117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16586584.post-40533477653865896122015-06-10T10:54:39.823+02:002015-06-10T10:54:39.823+02:00Thank you both for the input.

The items housed there are wroth many millions. Every time a letter of Charlotte's comes up for auction, seemingly a new record is made. Frankly I can easily see it being said down the line " oh yes items must be sold because the Parsonage can't pay for itself." It would serve very well to run the Parsonage down before hand. <br /><br />I watched a local museum being emptied out in this manner. Indeed today every museum has a similar target on its back I suggest loot is more on their minds than the Brontes .

I've been a Life Member since early 70's, although now disabled, I happily follow the many adventures of fellow members.<br /><br />Among our tens of hundreds of members around 100 were present at the meeting - I can't help wondering about the love and generosity to one other and to the people whose home it is all year; where was the kindness which seeks to please, not to win by planning disruption, for a plan of some sort there must have been...reducing opposition is one.<br /><br />It is until comparatively recently that we could happily walk & talk, eat & drink, in and around Haworth, museum & church, ditto surrounding villages. Sadly I can attest that out relationships are not the same now anymore and the Society needs to take the knife quickly and remove these 'Jonny-cankers'.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
