I pass close by the Church of the Nazarene most weekdays but had I not happened to be walking home on Sunday 11th, rather than hopping on a bus, it is quite likely I'd not have seen this banner advertising an EXP07 on "Addiscombe's Future". I've no idea how long it had been there but I hadn't noticed it before and I suspect it hadn't been there more than a day or two. It faced onto the road so you'd only really have noticed it if you happened to look across when walking on the other side of the road or using the pedestrian crossing. The website mentioned on the banner was only updated on the 14th (having been a month out of date) and even a local councillor only had two days notice. So I was lucky to find out about the event at all.

Well actually it turned out that I was unlucky to find out about the event as it was a complete waste of time with nothing about "Addiscombe's future" at all. No real "information", a few vague "displays" that were not specific to Addiscombe at all (and barely specific to Croydon), and no "Q & A's". It was a complete insult to the residents of Addiscombe.
