With luck you could even close the org. Our first real victory!

All signs point to "not great". Apparently they don't really draw in any new people and seem to specialise in older Scientologists who are passing through the area getting a little top up course here and there. You almost have to admire their tenacity in doing "stress tests" in Newcastle Sunday after Sunday with almost nothing to show for it. Three of us are going down there to keep them company this Sunday (tomorrow) though :D

The reporter who covered us for the Echo asked me how long it had been there when I spoke to her on the phone the day before and I have to admit I couldn't answer. I've subsequently found out that it opened in 1980 so add another 8 years to how long that stuff's been up! It really looked like it had seen better days.

Definitely. We dropped the ball on signs last time. [redacted]. I'm going to be bringing a few next time for sure.

Estate agent. The way he was dressed and way he was being so forceful in his interrogation of what we were doing and why and his counter arguments had me totally convinced he was from the org. He'd even come from that direction but then afterwards he strolled right back into the Estate Agents next door.
I mean of course he could be both... ;)
