Mwanahabari Posted April 22, 2013 #1 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I can't decide whether this is totally pointless, un-newsworthy or at a local level totally justified. What do you think? http://www.cambridge-news.co.uk/News/Bench-fenced-off-by-ridiculous-council-20130422060000.htm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freetoroam Posted April 22, 2013 #2 Share Posted April 22, 2013 (edited) I can't decide whether this is totally pointless, un-newsworthy or at a local level totally justified. What do you think? http://www.cambridge...30422060000.htm I see your point. Would have loved to have a go at the council, but they have said they are installing new ones. Maybe we can look out for Prior on the next Big brother, seems he just wanted to get into the paper and felt this was going to do it, well it worked, Cambridge must be lacking some interesting news if they found this news worthy enough to print.

Ashotep Posted April 22, 2013 #3 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I can see that mans point. What good is a bench if you can't get to it but hardly newsworthy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander CMG Posted April 23, 2013 #5 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I think there is a competition amongst Councils around the country to see who qualifies as the most stupid of 2013.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.United_Nations Posted April 23, 2013 #7 Share Posted April 23, 2013 If you read it again, people actually complained that there was no fence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Commander Travis Posted April 23, 2013 #8 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Well, how about this for all the latest important news: A £100,000 mini-roundabout has been branded ‘a dangerous waste of money’ after it was made twice as big as it should be. Engineers behind the road improvement scheme in Weymouth have admitted the roundabout at the centre of the project is the wrong size. It has been revealed the roundabout is eight metres in diameter when it should be half the size. http://www.dorsetecho.co.uk/news/10366800.__100k_Weymouth_roundabout__wrong_size_/?ref=mc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keel M. Posted April 24, 2013 #9 Share Posted April 24, 2013 If you find it so pointless, why did you spend time sharing it??? Pointless things are generally ignored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
