We know that the Brewers are “un”wanted men.
They do not answer e-mails and at the moment they seem to be in a dug-out in Houston and Bountiful. Maybe they’ve seen Maura Stewart hiding under the stairs in her Harry Potter room, reminding them that income taxes have to be paid by 31 January. And, if Companies House has a valid address for them, they will have been notified that audited accounts are overdue. I wonder if somebody is picking up the mail in Poole!
Then again, they might just be very tied up at the moment trying to hide £507,000 – the money they gained by their asset stripping performance in Exeter. Since only the Brewers know where that money has been stashed, their backpockets do not seem like an unreasonable conclusion.
And then there is Chichester and Durham. At some stage they will have to give up Durham which will hurt them financially. Would they want to give up Chichester? After all they have boasted about turning it into one of their pet redecorating projects. Oh and were they not supposed to be looking after the fabric of the building anyway?
Are the Brewers trying to play the legal system by ignoring everybody and then hoping all their critics will go away?
There is no knowing what these brothers are up to. One thing is for certain, the bloggers will not go away.

Hopefully if needed they will just go direct to the offices of BPLaw, especially as some of us have emails from the Brewers showing that that is where we had to send copies of accounts, and that is where SPCK had to send invoices for the first few months for bills to be (un)paid. So if in doubt raid the offices in Houston.
2009/02/02 at 1:19 pm
Phelim, news has reached me that the telephone bills are still in the name of SPCK. Surely that’s not right. If the bills go unpaid will SPCK have to cough up?
2009/02/02 at 3:29 pm
Now why doesn’t that suprise me! I am not sure whether SPCK will have to pay up for the unpaid bills, but they need to let the telephone companies know that the shops are no longer SPCK – yes the Brewers should have but they don’t tell anyone anything about moves and changes of names. Trading Standards and other legal bodies may be interested in this lapse of information by the Brewers.

A lot of money is being spent in Tucson………….
2009/02/02 at 8:45 pm
Tucson observer – don’t know what that is all about.
2009/02/02 at 9:07 pm
bountiful is in tucson, lots of new toys on property
2009/02/02 at 9:09 pm
I’m betwisted and bemused.
2009/02/02 at 11:52 pm
disgruntled neighbor, googled name, found all of your writings and others, sad stuff going on for many people, thought I would just add what I have observed in recent weeks.
2009/02/03 at 9:55 am
Welcome Tuscon – have you checked out the other blogs especially SPCK/SSG: News, Notes & Info where you can read all about what they are doing over here.
2009/02/03 at 9:57 am
Tuscon – meant to give the link. It is http://spckssg.wordpress.com/
2009/02/03 at 4:44 pm
Yes I have, I spent hours and hours reading, stunned, appalled, that is why I wanted to comment in regards to you mentioning how much money was received. Don’t know of the one from Houston, just Tucson. It is a sad circumstance for the employees, and also God’s work.
2009/02/03 at 8:22 pm
Tucson Observer, sorry that you’re having an argument with your neighbour. When you say “money received” I take it that means the sale of the shop in Exeter? I don’t know of any other properties that the Brewers are trying to sell. You’re right about the circumstances for employees being sad but God’s work will continue.
2009/02/03 at 11:34 pm
yes, I was referring to your mention of Exeter.
2009/02/04 at 6:54 am
Well you know that one Brewer lives in a holiday home. Share the info with the Charities Commission and Companies House.
2009/02/04 at 6:51 pm
Jonathan, that’s a holiday home as advertised via google. Phil can’t be living there. The ad says that you can rent the whole house. As for the money from the sale of the Exeter shop – well when they hand in the accounts for St Stephen the Great to the Charities Commission we’ll all be able to see whether that money has been accounted for. It might end up in the Orthodox Church Mission Fund. Until we know we can only surmise.
2009/02/05 at 9:06 pm
Not only will the Bloggers not go away, but neither will the organisations trying to sort out the legalities of this horrendous situation, plus those who don’t blog but sign petitions and give other support. Didn’t the new President of the US in his inaugaration speech talk about things like integrity, morals, ethics, honesty etc and how he wanted all of these kind of things in America? Well, we want them in the UK as well, so Brewers beware!
2009/02/05 at 10:14 pm
the holiday house you mentioned on google, is the home. It has not been legally permitted as a holiday house (as far as I know). That is where they live, the neighborhood I live in also. This was part of the issues, we do not want a B&B (bed & breakfast) as we call them in our neighborhood.
2009/02/05 at 10:50 pm
And we don’t want the B&B Brewers in our neighbourhood, either!!
2009/02/05 at 11:15 pm
Tuscon observer, so glad you found us , we all know about the house Bountifull , I am not at all surprised by what you say ,not been legally permitted as a holiday home . You and your neighbours must stand firm .The Brewer brothers have devastated lives in this country ,and they call themselves Christians. Can I ask what the new toys are at property , just being nosey best wishes
2009/02/06 at 10:41 am
Tuscon Observer, keep an eye on those Brewers for us. They are tricky.
2009/02/06 at 12:41 pm
Phil Groom, the Bed & Breakfast Brewers. That’s a great name for them. Somebody gave them a bed and then they breakfasted.
2009/02/06 at 12:42 pm
Your turn Mousey.
2009/02/06 at 3:03 pm
Tucson – aren’t there planning regulations as here in the UK which could stop the B&B? After all, the other Brewer brother was stopped by the Courts in Houston from trying to submit a false bankruptcy claim. Otherwise, if the B&B is open, just get a Michelin Inspector to visit – they’re good at sorting things out.
2009/02/06 at 9:01 pm
Bed and Breakfast at the SPCK?
2009/02/06 at 10:32 pm
When I said ‘B&B Brewers’ the words ‘Bed & Breakfast’ were not quite those I had in mind…
2009/02/06 at 11:52 pm
Yes there are regulations and I thought it was done with until I went to the site you mentioned and saw it advertised.
I have seen a new motor home and more recently an hummer.
2009/02/07 at 2:00 pm
Good to hear from you Tucson……well at least we now have an idea where SOME of the money owed to staff, suppliers ,utility companies and Landlords went….
2009/02/07 at 2:26 pm
Sadly, Tucson, we’ve seen a lot of disregard for the law over here, and a lot of comments about documents not being received. Does the motor home have an address?
2009/02/07 at 4:55 pm
This here`s a home for holidays.
(We live here all year round.
Our Bountiful supply of saints
makes our reasons sound!)
Red letter days; red number days -

Our BB Brewers` gamestore holds
our Bountiful supply
of hummers and a mobile home;
an airplane in the sky.
It`s said, at Tucson you may find

Too bad that Michelin don`t know
our scrumtious recipes!

Wilkommen, bien venues.
As long as youre the ones who pay -

Sorry about duplication. My server was having a silly spell.
2009/02/07 at 8:13 pm
Tucson observer, we are indebted to you for your comments. We hope that what you have read on the blogs will help you to fend off any attempts to sully your neighbourhood with the B&B Brewers. God knows we are ever so sorry with having them on our doorstep.
2009/02/07 at 8:41 pm

2009/02/09 at 8:42 pm
Tucson when we click on the ENTER HERE button, we cannot complete the information asked for so we’ve drawn a blank over here in the freezing cold UK. Mind you, we’re used to being kept out by the Brewers.
2009/02/09 at 9:10 pm
Valiant for Truth, I’ve e-mailed Tucson Observer. Hopefully some clarification will be posted.
2009/02/10 at 9:11 pm
I resonded to email. hopefully that helps.
2009/02/11 at 12:06 am
I also reviewed the link I sent you, the corrected one, after you hit enter all you need is the first and last name and hit search, you don’t need the dates, etc.
2009/02/11 at 7:14 pm
Thanks Tucson observer. So this shows the number of times the Brewers have had to go to court because they wanted to rent out their home as a B&B. When you type in Mildred Brewer after entering the site it’s interesting too. Looks like the neighbours do not like the Brewers.
2009/02/11 at 7:29 pm
For those who would like a further look at what a nuisance the Brewers can be see http://www.pima.gov/cob/e-agenda/03132007/P21-06-033-AdtlMat.pdf
It’s worth the effort and if I’ve given the link incorrectly I’m sure I’ll be alerted to it. Strange how fundamentalists can allow noisy parties on their properties. I hope it wasn’t during the Orthodox lent. Oops sorry it wasn’t the Brewers having noisy parties. I’m not in the mood for winding them up.
2009/02/11 at 8:05 pm
Google’s HTML version loads much faster than the pdf: Agenda Material.
2009/02/11 at 8:53 pm
What can I say about Phil Groom and the many working on this issue?
2009/02/11 at 9:37 pm
P12, Mr Brewer was dishonest? Way back then? He’s still trading?
2009/02/11 at 10:32 pm
A leopard never changes its spots.
2009/02/11 at 10:38 pm
Thankyou Phil Groom for posting the Agenda Material interesting reading.
2009/02/11 at 11:49 pm
I feel a song coming on…
Oh, I was on the bus to Bountiful
to visit the B&B
when I bumped into a neighbor
who invited me in for tea.
She said, “Hey, that’s the Brewers’ place,
don’t you know that it’s a right disgrace?
They throw mud into their neighbor’s face
and pretend it’s fine coz there’s lots of space:
‘Of our guests there’ll hardly be a trace
So God bless you all
and sod off now:
WE’RE THE BLOODY BREWERS
AND WE’RE DOING IT ANYWAY!’”
Sorry, lost the rhythm towards the end. Must’ve been a bulldozer going by or something…
2009/02/12 at 6:25 pm
No it wasn’t a bulldozer. It was a grader trying to level the DIRT road leading to the B&B Brewer. Strange how dirt attaches itself to the Brewers. I would like to add that the neighbours won their appeal so I don’t understand why Phil Brewer has not withdrawn the advertisement. Phil G you could have used this as a new post on your blog.
2009/02/12 at 6:42 pm
asingleblog – one of us with rights to post threads may just do that.

2009/05/02 at 3:21 am
Just catching up again.
Good to have some input from Tucson.
2009/08/14 at 7:42 pm
Leaving this comment in the hope that ‘Tucson Observer’ is subscribed to comments: Tucson, are you and your neighbours aware that Phil Brewer has filed for personal bankruptcy? See http://spckssg.wordpress.com/2009/08/12/philip-brewer-files-for-chapter-13-personal-reorganization/
2009/08/14 at 9:05 pm
Thanks Phil.
