Default You couldn't make it up!

Local council (Bolton) have, at a cost of over £750, put 2 signs on local library with pictures to let people who can't read know where the library is!

How about the local council in Cornwall who waited years to put a by-pass around the bottleneck at Double-Bois and then built it - complete with two 'Bat' bridges that cost £300,000.

Yes, that's right - two bridges to assist BATS to fly over the new bypass.

The local council defended building the bridges by way of saying that BATS are protected species and therefore they were entitled to assistance to cross over the road. However the Council were a bit upset by the fact that after considerable research - only about a dozen bats have been seen in the vicinity of the Bridges.

Perhaps the bats need the sign writers of Bolton to show them where the bridges are.

Hi Dave

Have you seen the Bolton Council's logo well it cost £20,000 for a consultancy firm to come up with that design.

They call it the DNA of Bolton it also cost in the region of £80,000 to have it put on all the council vehicles.

A primary school in Bolton could have come up with a better logo for a few quid.

For those of you who want a look here is a link Home it is the stripy multi coloured in Bolton.

just had a look at the logo.....(if thats it at the page bottom)



Eeee by 'eck billy, they've got it all haven't they !!!!!

a young single mum with her 4 kids,

a couple of old wino's sitting on a park bench,

a bloke with the church roof in a wheelie bin going to the scrap merchants,

a bloke about to kick seven bells out of a lamp post,

a bloke who reads books to trees,

and lastly, the worlds tallest woman.




better than scarboroughs written logo.

"Scarborough, a great place to live, work and play"

you cant afford to live here 'cos of the high poll tax.

you cant work here as there are no jobs.

you cant play here 'cos the police think you're drunk and larking around.
