  • AUTUMN 2011 TENANT’S NEWSLETTER Text Messaging Exciting New Development for Ayrshire Housing Tenants
    AUTUMN 2011 TENANT’S NEWSLETTER Text Messaging Exciting New Development for Ayrshire Housing Tenants We are always looking for ways we can improve the efficiency of our services. How we communicate with you can make a real difference. There are a number of ways that we currently use to either contact you directly or to provide more general information and advice. Whether it is through letters, telephone calls, home visits or our website we try to ensure that the most effective and appropriate method is used to contact you. We are now looking to introduce another way to keep in touch with you. A significant number of tenants now use mobile phones either to supplement their use of landline telephones or as an alternative to actually having a landline. We are seeing elsewhere an increase in the use of mobile phone text messaging to contact and communicate with tenants. Experience elsewhere suggests that this is proving to be a very convenient way of contacting tenants. We have been given the opportunity to pilot this method of communication for a two month period. We will then take a view as to whether to purchase the appropriate IT software for us to use permanently. During the pilot scheme we will use text messaging or emails to communicate information regarding gas servicing details and appointments. If the pilot proves successful we will then consider extending the text messaging to cover other areas such as repairs and rents. Having up to date details of your mobile phone numbers and also email addresses is vital to the effectiveness of this and without these we will not be able to provide these improvements to our methods of delivering these services.

    AYRSHIRE MONOGRAPHS NO.25 The Street Names of Ayr Rob Close Published by Ayrshire Archaeological and Natural History Society First published 2001 Printed by The Cromwell Press Ltd, Trowbridge, Wiltshire Rob Close is the author of Ayrshire and Arran: An Illustrated Architectural Guide (1992), and is presently co-editor of Ayrshire Notes. He has also contributed articles to Scottish Local History, Scottish Brewing Archive and other journals. He lives near Drongan with his long-suffering partner, Joy. In 1995 he was one half of the Scottish Handicap Doubles Croquet Champions. Cover design by David McClure. 1SBN 0 9527445 9 7 THE STREET NAMES OF AYR 1 INTRODUCTION Names have an important role in our lives: names of people, names of places, and names of things. In an enclosed, small community, these names remain informal, but as the community grows, and as travel and movement become commoner, then more formalised names are required, names which will prevent confusion. Formal and informal names can exist alongside one another. During the course of preparing this book, I agreed to meet some friends on the road between ‘Nick’s place’ and ‘the quarry’: that we met successfully was due to the fact that we all recognised and understood these informal place names. However, to a different cohort of people, ‘Nick’s place’ is known as ‘the doctor’s house’, while had we been arranging this rendezvous with people unfamiliar with the area, we would have had to fall back upon more formal place names, names with a wider currency, names with ‘public’ approval, whether conferred by the local authority, the Post Office or the Ordnance Survey.
