I think I have to apologise for this one! Sorry folks, the story pinged up on my Telegraph page and I assumed it was from the previous Bank Hol. Why it would come up 3 years later is beyond me and is best addressed to The Telegraph.   ................it's still quite funny though!

As soon as Hitler or the Nazis are mentioned in an argument the poster loses! It's called Godwin's Law (look it up on Wiki!). So Mughead - you lose again! We do need a hour's free parking if the town is to survive. I know a lot of people who don't carry cash (yes - even small amounts - me included) who don't park in the town centre due to the current propensity of Parking Taxers patrolling ...

Happy Hunting. ...

Philip, Most of the activities of the amazing week you've just seen were advertised through banners on the viaduct. From now on they won't be.

Didn't say it was you Nelson. Another nail in the coffin because to advertise and reach a similar number of people will cost hundreds of pounds. Considering even PITP made (not yet got final figures) around say £1500 why are organisations going to bother? Margins squeezed even more because one person objects to banners being on the viaduct. Philip, a town isn't just about businesses (which are ...
