From the Enturb forum.

Very interesting.

"David & Sheila Gaiman"

Relation to Neil, the Lovecraft boning author of I Cthulhu?

Does anyone have the address of the place?Some kind anon told us at the protest (I lost my copy ... :( ).

Pitmaston House,

On the corner of Russel Street.

Mosely.


Is what I was told.

Did I hear someone mention something about the Bristol Road and buying something?

You may have done.

*Rephrase*

Does anyone have any information on the aforementioned mention of something about the Bristol Road and buying something, that can be posted here?

Ooooh.

Well.


I think you were standing next to me at the time, when that old woman with pink in her hair came over and spoke about 'allegedly' finding out where they were planning to buy.

That's all I heard.


Russel Street ... Bristol Street...

Unlikely, but any chance you misheard/someone misheard and told you?

I wasn't, I was re-writing sign...

I believe I was doing the Down-with-this-sort-of-thing Side. I hoped (apparently in vain) that someone would write it down :(

You had a 'Down with this sort of thing' side? =O

I Did... But I have been confused... the scilons must have cast some confusing powers on me...

I was writing the Penny for your thoughts, as suggested. Down with this sort of thing came later, because Penny was washing off in th'rain.

*Edit*

I can prove this...

With myself Doodling on the floor behind the bike, and wise purple lady in the Anon-crowd.

In that case,

that was when she said Russel Street.

I think its corner of Russel Road and Moor Green Lane;

(all hail Google Maps ;) )

The "front" of the place looks like the one in the promo header an anon found (linked to in the map)

Whats concerning is the fact that there is Parkview andUffculme clinics and Moseley Hall Hospitals all down the road, a childs clinic, psychotherapy clinic and elderly persons hospital respectively.
Given the CoS opposition to psychiatry, and the desperation of parents with sick children or people with elderly relatives, the CoS has a prime area to recruit people. Just the thought makes me feel ill.

Martin Mullaney is the councillor for the local area, maybe get a letter together for him?
I cant see a protest working atm, theres no-one there, so maybe talk with local residents/take to moseley high street?

Or, if someone has a few million burning their back pocket, buy the building before the CoS does, that would be epic ;)

In b4 Scientology would be epic.

As above I am considering doing something like that in Mosely.

Cheers

£929,000 is the lowest they could possibly have in the bank for this venture so far.

WTB cult.

Hey, i did a bit of research the other day. It appears CoS had a presence in Moseley during the 1970-80s.

'It seemed that Dianetics had been absorbed by Scientology. Science of Survival contained an out-dated list of Scientology Churches. Eventually I found a phone number for the "Birmingham Mission of the Church of Scientology." After a few minutes of conversation, the receptionist insisted that I take a train immediately. About three hours later, after a complicated journey, I arrived at the "Mission." It was over a launderette in Moseley village, at that time the dowdy home of the Birmingham hippy community.

The receptionist sat behind an old desk at the head of the steep stairs. It was just after six in the evening, and the rest of the Mission staff had gone home to take a break before returning for the evening session. The receptionist was in her early twenties, and had abandoned a career in teaching to become a full-time Scientologist. She was cheerful and self-assured, and she looked me straight in the eye. She exuded confidence that Scientology was the stuff of miracles. I mentioned my interest in Buddhism, so she gave me a Scientology magazine called Advance! which claimed that Scientology was its modern successor. I was passionately interested, but she would not trust me to take a copy of Hubbard's Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health, and pay the next day.'

The proposed site in Moseley was apparently saved from developers:

I was wondering why they like Moseley so much, until it occured to me that going to purchase a dream catcher from Zen isn't really that far away from becoming a Scifag.
