Story SavedYou can find this story in  My Bookmarks.Or by navigating to the user icon in the top right has been awarded its third contract in Kent This is to manufacture and install the timber superstructures for eight ultra-low energy homes in the town of Edenbridge for developer The Balma Group Project architects Edwards Wilson are working with Balma to deliver the Crofton Mews development three-bed mews-style houses and two two-storey This will provide much needed family housing for market sale or rent in the centre of the town and adjacent to a primary school TALO’s building system is currently manufactured offsite in Finland and uses slow-grown Nordic timber for superior build quality It arrives on site complete with triple glazing a high level of insulation pre-installed in the factory and external walls with interior plaster boarding This approach means the homes at Crofton Mews will benefit from a much higher level of thermal efficiency exceeding Passivhaus energy standards by at least 30 per cent TALO’s highly insulated superstructure also achieves outstanding air tightness It is combined with a solar battery package and MVHR (mechanical ventilation and heat recovery) resulting in exceptionally low energy bills for homeowners or tenants the eight homes will be installed on site and watertight in just 10 days ready for the contractor to start fitting out Commenting on the decision to use TALO’s offsite system for this scheme, James Everest, Managing Director of The Balma Group: “We estimate that the overall programme saving from using this advanced offsite housing system will be around six months It will give us a faster return on investment and greater certainty of programme for the fit-out phase It will also enable us to bring these new family homes to market much sooner to the benefit of the community of Edenbridge The TALO approach has already generated significant cost savings in structural engineering and groundworks from its standardised design and foundations We also found it very useful to visit TALO’s offsite factory in Finland and to see a number of homes there under construction The pace of work on site despite freezing temperatures was incredible.” “We don’t believe you can build to this level of specification and performance traditionally The fact that this system is manufactured using robust proven processes in a controlled factory environment The system also has a higher level of insulation for improved thermal efficiency these homes will comfortably exceed Building Regulations requirements for energy performance and air tightness by a considerable margin giving occupants the benefit of much lower running costs.” the homes at Crofton Mews have been designed to complement other housing in the locality Each home will have open plan family kitchen-living and there will be eight parking spaces and one visitor/disabled bay For more information about TALO’s timber offsite solutions for ultra-low energy housing, see www.talo.co.uk or email hello@talo.co.uk Building, Design & Construction Magazine | The Choice of Industry Professionals A Building Magazine Leading in the field of building news reporting Building Design & Construction Magazine is one of the most respected and referenced sources of building news enquiries@bdcmagazine.co.uk+44 1484 437312 Subscribe our newsletter to get the best stories into your inbox © 2025 BDC Magazine | The Choice of Industry Professionals DON\u2019T MISS THIS YEARS ALTERNATIVE GIFT GUIDE Get the \u2018cene CULTURE SHOT straight to your inbox on each release By using this website, you agree to our T&C\u2019s, privacy policy & use of cookies. We use analytical data to provide you with an enjoyable experience and to help our website run effectively Edenbridge Bonfire Society has announced that the famous effigy for its 2024 event will be Ticketmaster The 11-metre effigy of Ticketmaster was unveiled this morning before it is moved to become the centre piece at the Kent town’s annual bonfire celebrations which raises thousands of pounds for local charities Ticketmaster was decided by a committee due to their ‘greedy dynamic pricing of tickets’ for the long-awaited Oasis tour coming up in 2025 which saw fans who had been waiting for hours in a queue being told the price of tickets was as much as £506.25 each The Society have included the Gallagher brothers as ‘puppets’ on the effigy as it was their tour which brought to light the unfair dynamic pricing of tickets in the first place commented: “We wanted to remind people that it doesn’t always have to be politicians who we create for our annual event. We also wanted to appeal to a wider audience.  The Ticketmaster ticket fiasco has affected a lot of different age groups and I know many fans were very unhappy at being ripped off by Ticketmaster when they discovered the price of the tickets.  No one likes being taken advantage of by these big companies.” said: “In the eight years I’ve been doing this we have done so many politicians so this year we really wanted to do something different.  Although our effigy includes Liam and Noel Gallagher it is the corporate giant of Ticketmaster we have gone with this year.  We are all big Oasis fans and wish them a very successful tour.” Other contenders for the 2024 event included Sir Kier Starmer P-Diddy and Mohammed Al-Fayed to name a few.  Past targets for Edenbridge Bonfire Society’s  effigy have been a real mixture of public figures The burning of effigies is a traditional celebration of the 5th of November The intention behind the tradition is to bring a light-hearted twist and an element of fun to the proceeding and to raise awareness of this event – which raises thousands of pounds for local charities and community organisations.  Edenbridge Bonfire Society only started to feature giant effigies at their event since the mid-nineties when they were no longer able to light a huge bonfire in the local recreation ground Edenbridge Bonfire Society has been celebrating Bonfire Night for nearly 100 years and this year will see more than 500 people participating in the torchlit parade through Edenbridge High Street For more informationabout Edenbridge Bonfire Night

several men involved in a street disturbance on May 2 which was believed to be linked to a dispute over drugs Fighting broke out in areas around Stanbridge Road and Pine Grove and the incident included assaults with a catapult and a knife Mahmutaj was carrying a blank firing pistol which had been converted to be capable of firing live rounds He made attempts to shoot at one of the rival males He was with a friend who had been stabbed during the fight and he initially claimed they had been set upon by people they didn’t know Searches led to the recovery of the gun nearby An 8mm round which had misfired was found within the barrel An investigation conclusively matched the weapon to Mahmutaj Enquiries also connected him to a white Audi which on the previous day was linked to incidents of criminal damage to cars belonging to the rival group East London was charged with possessing a firearm with intent to cause fear of violence He pleaded not guilty at Maidstone Crown Court

it is the corporate giant of Ticketmaster we have gone with this year" Edenbridge Bonfire Society has revealed that this year’s effigy for the 2025 event will be based on the Ticketmaster Oasis fiasco The Kent-based society shared that the 11ft effigy which will be lit at the bonfire celebration this Saturday (November 2) was chosen as a response to Ticketmaster’s “greedy” dynamic pricing fiasco that occurred during the sale of tickets for Oasis’ 2025 reunion tour The sculpture also features puppets of both Liam and Noel Gallagher as it was their reunion tour that brought to light the reality of the ticket seller’s inflated pricing scheme As reported by BBC the group have been “poking fun at infamous celebrities” for over 25 years and have previously targeted the likes of  Donald Trump Ticketmaster unveiled as #BonfireNight effigy over #Oasis tour ‘fiasco’ https://t.co/UoNMzv6jcg pic.twitter.com/EhmnPUHsU0 — Belfast Telegraph (@BelTel) October 30, 2024 “In the eight years I’ve been doing this we have done so many politicians so this year we really wanted to do something different,” Reece Hook – one of the effigy’s creators – told BBC He continued: “Although our effigy includes Liam and Noel Gallagher they are not our target – it is the corporate giant of Ticketmaster we have gone with this year We are all big Oasis fans and wish them a very successful tour.” During the tumultuous sale for the legendary band’s UK and Ireland shows, some fans were disappointed to find ticket prices were impacted by the dynamic pricing policy upon accessing payment pages The ticketing platform’s “surge pricing” scheme Ticketmaster have clarified on their website previously that tickets that are “market-priced” and “may increase or decrease at any time This is similar to how airline tickets and hotel rooms are sold.” At the time, Oasis responded with a statement which read: “Oasis leave decisions on ticketing and pricing entirely to their promoters and management and at no time had any awareness that dynamic pricing was going to be used.” The band later confirmed that a dynamic pricing structure would not be applied to their North American reunion tour dates More recently, Oasis have announced that they will be cancelling thousands of tickets to their upcoming UK 2025 reunion tour that have been sold via resale websites have revealed they will be cancelling all tickets sold via secondary ticketing sites All invalidated tickets will then be made available again through Ticketmaster In other news, Liam Gallagher recently teased that Oasis are about to announce the South American leg of their huge reunion world tour The world’s defining voice in music and pop culture: breaking what’s new and what’s next since 1952 “No one likes being taken advantage of,” says effigy artist Andrea Deans Bonfire Night celebrations kicked off with a bang this weekend, with crowds across the country indulging in the usual mix of fireworks and bonfires – but a small town in Kent decided to burn off some Oasis-related grievances In protest of Ticketmaster’s controversial dynamic pricing system, Edenbridge hosted its own Oasis-themed witch burning, with effigies of Liam and Noel Gallagher placed in the centre of the town’s annual bonfire Edenbridge burns down the most topical villain of the moment Previous effigies have included politicians as well as convicted sex offender and film producer Harvey Weinstein and doping cyclist Lance Armstrong “The Ticketmaster ticket fiasco has affected a lot of different age groups and I know many fans were very unhappy at being ripped off… when they discovered the price of the tickets,” effigy artist Andrea Deans explains via Edenbridge Bonfire Society’s Facebook page Say hello to our 2024 effigy 🎫 The Ticketmaster 🎫We wanted to remind people that it doesn’t always have to be… Posted by Edenbridge Bonfire Society on Wednesday, October 30, 2024 and added them to the design purely because they highlighted the dynamic ticket pricing and brought all this to light,” she writes The real villain this year was the “money-emoji” businessman featured in the effigy “We wanted to show Ticketmaster for what it is – a money-making machine,” she says When Oasis announced their reunion back in August “The stars have aligned,” their announcement said Sky News reported that online queues for reunion tickets exceeded 500,000 hopefuls Ticketmaster’s dynamic pricing system quickly responded to the huge demand dramatically amping up the £150 face value price tag Ticketmaster explained the price hike by pointing to its terms where it notes that prices can be “fixed or market-based” While Deans implies the blame is squarely in Ticketmaster’s court, others have been critical of the Gallaghers; many believed the brothers were aware of Ticketmaster’s dynamic pricing system. However, the Oasis duo issued a statement saying: “It needs to be made clear that Oasis leave decisions on ticketing and pricing entirely to their promoters and management.” They explained that “at no time” did they have “any awareness that dynamic pricing was going to be used” Ticketmaster and the band’s management resulted in a positive ticket sale strategy which would be a fair experience for fans… the execution of the plan failed to meet expectations,” the statement continued A post shared by Oasis (@oasis) Oasis’s management seem to support the controversial pricing system An Instagram statement reads: “It is widely accepted that dynamic pricing remains a useful tool to combat ticket touting and keep prices for a significant proportion of fans lower than the market rate and thus more affordable.” In light of the backlash, Oasis did not employ dynamic pricing for their North American and Australian tour dates The world’s leading authority and resource for all things guitar.
