Simply everyone should know this.

Sarcasm is the lowest form of grit.

Sarcasm is actually very dangerous when used incorrectly.

It cost the council in the region £78bn in legal fees last year.

This might qualify as my first public 'lie'.

Confused.

Does that mean the hired assassin will carry out their work in Rishton, rather than elsewhere in Hyndburn?

I do hope this isn't being funded from the public purse.

this must be done between November the 12th and November the 26th

This is according to last nights Telegraph

A hit wo/man often uses very imaginative ways to dispense with his/her task, the guy/gal is an artist in their own right so, yes, there will be a grant for that.

Garinda, please stop going on, and on, about this!

Oh, sorry, it's you Less.

Carry on.

I notice that Nick hasn't been back since, perhaps he's waiting on instructions from TheLeadersOfficeHBC. For anyone that still thinks I was being serious about £6.6m, I wasn't and I'm truly sorry for the distress and inconvenience this caused Cllr Whittaker.

Has anyone phoned up for their sack of grit yet?

Don't believe everything you read in the press Mick.

As a service to the forum I just phoned up and ordered a bag.

It is a per household thing not per person.
