What's with the old bunting hanging around town even one with shoes hanging on it., Is the town celebrating or is it left up for the next big event. Or perhaps the council doesn't have the funds to take it down.
Normally if theres shoes/trainers hanging from telephone wires or anything that they can hang shoe wear from is for drugs its to tell them where they deal drugs. It would be that someones just being silly and throwed them there, put that what it normally means. We had some in a road by where we live and got in touch with BT and they come and cut them down incase the wire was to loosen ....
