'Thousands' on the Flash Mob !!! ... that's increased (wasn't even local council money)...anyway stick to the issue being discussed ... as you have just so rightly mentioned.

Er...my little bug bear, facts.
Let's deal in them.
You might want to check your's.
The Arts Czarina posted that three quarters of the funding for the flash mob came from the Lotto, and 'about a quarter' from HBC. I posted many times, besides thinking that it was naff, that I wouldn't have given two hoots, if it wasn't part funded by the tax payers of Hyndburn. That was the whole point.
Thankfully never having been a gambler, it's hard to predict on any returns from 'monies gained'.
Besides, it's especially irresponsible to gamble when the piggy bank is empty, and you haven't got any money as a stake in the first place.
I started this thread because I wondered if others think it's also a stupid waste of money, in these worrying times.
So far, the vast majority think similarly.
You don't.
Fine.
I hope you enjoy your 'pricless' extravangance.
Call it our treat.
