Lifts A, B and D are now operational again with their smart new flooring. Thanks to all for their cooperation in this project.

As informed last night there is now wet paint on the fire escape metal steps. A second coat will be applied on Friday (tomorrow) . The paint will take the weekend to fully harden and “wet paint” notices will remain on the (operational) fire escape doors. Please do not use these steps until the notices are removed by the contractor. Usage will probably ruin your shoes and require the work to be repeated at extra cost and inconvenience.

The metal fire escape steps near the bin rooms will be receiving 2 new coats of (silver) paint over the next 2 days. The work is needed because the steps are frequently used and the existing paint has worn through allowing rust to reappear.

Please avoid using the steps whilst the “wet paint” signs are displayed. The fire exit doors will remain operational to maintain the escape route but obviously will be leading onto wet paint.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Lifts A and B are operational again but the adhesive needs to fully cure over night – so please no heavy movements (builders etc) until tomorrow (Thursday 20th June).

Lift D will have its flooring done tomorrow morning but be out of action until late afternoon – again this is to allow the adhesive to cure. Please don’t make heavy movements (builders etc) in lift D until Friday (21st June).

Disappointingly a resident switched on and operated lift A whilst it was out of service. Please leave this type of operation to authorised persons.

Just a quick note to say the Directors hope you had a very Merry Christmas and we’d like to wish you all a Happy New Year as well.

We’d also like to let you know that one of our residents, Deepankar Nayak, has been given permission to set off a few fireworks from the lawns of Regatta Point at around midnight – so there will be some noise.

Deepankar and his family would like to extend an invitation to any resident at Regatta Point that would like to join them to welcome in the New Year.

Wishing you all a very prosperous 2019,

The Directors – RPFL

We are please to be able to announce that we have managed to arrange for the disposal of your used Christmas Trees by combination of contracts and the kindness of car park owners.

The contract that covers our gardening contains a clause for the disposal of Christmas Trees as long as they are place in CAR PARK SPACE NUMBER 1 FROM THE 8TH OF JANUARY (not before please).  We hope that this will be more convenient for you instead of arranging you own disposals.

Please remember to clean up the communal corridors if your tree sheds needles on its way to the car park – for the consideration of fellow residents.

Residents cannot leave trees in the communal bin areas for collection as the council will not take them without prior arrangement.

On a less happy note – we also have to say that over the Christmas period some residents dumped unwanted furniture and other items in the communal bin rooms which is not permitted.  This incurs significant costs to Regatta Point and we will be using the cctv to identify culprits.
