I'm sure we'll all have learnt the steps soon, and we'll then consider it money very well spent.

Although if you'd gone down the more tradition route, the costs would have been zilch...

Make sure details of event, and video showing what people should do at allotted time of flash mob, are sent to every school, youth club, community centre, whoever else might be interested, in the area.

Sit back, and watch it happen.

No fees, no admin. charges, no charge for performance co-ordination.

Nothing required from the public purse at all.

A great fat zero, and a saving of £1,160.00




That has to be a first, even for an accyweb pedant/troll/spammer....quoting and responding to ones own post..

There's always one...sits at the end of the bar, bores the crap out of everyone, keeps on harping on the same point..over and over and over and over and over and over again.


Why not just use copy/paste and a disclaimer..something along the lines of 'here is yet another post from me in this thread where I am posting the same thing AGAIN but one or two words may be added in yet another vain attempt at humour/wit/sarcasm/irony/name dropping' (delete as appropriate)


Yawn!
Er..to anyone but a fool, I quoted my own post, to illustrate that I'd already suggested a free way of having a flash mob, via a clip on YouTube, after showing this event had subsequently done the same thing...but at some greater cost to the public purse. My costings equalled zero, not £1,160.00

Pretty colours, in your post, by the way.

Did those nice teachers show you how to do that, when you weren't busy licking the windows?

Very artistic.

Well done you.
