    I am going to keep this simple because if I start a rant it will be gibberish that goes on for pages .

    I am obviously getting very old and grumpy and sad and boring and nothingbettertobedoing ( not really sure if thats a word BUT it should be ).

    While sitting outside the crescent comp waiting to collect the kids from school I saw a guy taking down Peter Powers posters , he took down four , picked up three and put them in the back of his van and left the fourth one lying on the ground along with 3 cut cable ties . Good holy mother of all thats holy , in any religion , here or over there , in this world or the next , in space and time , would it really have been that terribly difficult and time consuming to pick up the last one as well .

    Deep breath ... deeper breath , count to ten , have a fag , calm down John calm down .

    So , hows it going for the rest of ye ? nice sunny Spring morning eh

    Contact the council's environmental department, and Mr Power will get a fine for littering.

    The rule for poster removal says they have 7 days from when the last person gets into the dail and counting is continuing so you never know the Peter power man might be back.

    Yes, it's happened before and will happen again.

    I've been personally responsible for a few fines being issued :D

    while they do have time to remove the posters, you can immediately report him for leaving the cut cableties there.

    I heard on the radio yesterday that the Council have both video and photographic evidence as to who's posters were placed where and will be able to issue fines to those who leave cable-ties behind
