Re: Town Centre Planters

When I went into town early yesterday morning, the planters outside Boots had had many of the plants ripped out of the planter and thrown on the floor...there was also a fine assortment of rubbish where the plants should have been......in the planter.
Today there was a council workman replacing the vandalised plants.

Why can't they leave things alone?! The vandals I mean, not the council workers.

Because these people cannot abide to see something that will brighten up the lives of the rest of us....they must have deprived backgounds and feel that we should be deprived too......OK...I'll get off the soapbox now and give someone else a chance.

Good .. keep replacing them over and over again, but heavy fines for anyone committing just a dastardly act, PEOPLE OF ACCY UNITE AND REPORT ANY SUCH GOINGS ON ..

Think the ones in Clayton have now grown a little and are looking much more colourful ....

Excellent .. let's hope there will be a result.

Hope the council will pressurise the police in taking some sort of action !

Another one has mysteriously appeared at the bottom of Rhyddings St. I'm still hoping someone comes along and positions them a little more artistically.

Again - A for effort, E for execution

I'm really pleased to hear that Lindsay....when they catch the person repsonsible he should be chained to the planter and we should be able to pelt him with conny muck....any that missed would do the plants good.

Hey, will they be able to put it in that new thingy in the Observer where they show a picture from CCTV of the perpetrator for identification .. know not as serious crime as others, well, sort of, isn't it. Sure they will get lots of reactions.

Margaret, what's conny muck ?
