If enough people complain hopefully Dunnies will remain!

Is it possible to start an epetition. I don't know how to do that but it's a good way of getting lots protests.                                                                                                                                                                             

Sprint .. I didn't know Dunnies was closing..  maybe that's why Squires feel they can start charging like they are doing?   

I hope Dunnies gets a good result.                                                                                                                                                                              

Thats a shame ...its been there a long while.. And as you say Sprint very reasonably priced  .. same here Karey ..I wish them a good outcome to this .                                                                                                                                                                               

  I've started an e-petition, entitled 'Do not demolish Dunnies Cafe in Otley' on the government site, wasn't sure which department to send it to so I've put it under 'Department for Communities and Local Government'     I have to wait til it's checked to make sure it complies with their rules then it will be available for you to sign.   here's the place to create, and sign, other HM Government e-petitions   http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk                                                                                                                                                                                 

  I should have googled it first, it's actually called Wharfe View cafe lol   I've been to it, once, but sat outside, seems to be a bit small   According to this site it's in NORTH Yorkshire    http://fullchatter.com/blog/2011/06/04/north-yorks-dunn...afe-otley/                                                                                                                                                                             

  My petition is now live, so get signing if you want to try and save the cafe   Closing date 30th July 2013 at 09:43   http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/49172

  Em it said 1 signature cos it's a new petition and has only just gone live, I think it should be my signature, not sure if I have to sign it as well as creating it.    Nope, I've just looked and it says 2 signatures so my signature went on automatically when I created the petition.
