Bet Fred's jumper.

Apparently Ossy came to a standstill earlier today, for about a hour and a half.

Bet Fred's betting shop, on the block where the old Moor End Post Office used to be, had someone on it's roof, threatening to throw himself off into Union Rd.

Don't know anymore details.

I wonder if it was the man who's banned from every roof top in Hyndburn?

Was Fred out offering odds whether he'd jump or not

Re: Bet Fred's jumper.

It was not him or his brother,

Hyndburn roof pest back in court (From Lancashire Telegraph)

I hope he ain't got another brother,who is now acting in protest or it could just be a friend...

I saw that, when I was searching if there were any further details in the paper.

No, they weren't taking bets.

Though apparently it was a good day for selling pies, to the hungry crowds who stood gawping.

What top end of Ossy, they'd think they'd just been to a showing of the Exorcist

Bit windy and parky for roof top silliness.

I'd have done it last week.
