I understood exactly the point Shaz was trying to make.

I respect her point of view even though it is different to mine.

My point was that it didn't enhance the overall opinion of Accrington as a place, and therefore it didn't actually do anything helpful to promote the town. Maybe promoting the town wasn't what it was about....I just thought it was silly stuff, lightweight and of little value.

Are we all supposed to say 'ooh, aah, isn't it grand'(a bit like the emperors new clothes) or can we be allowed to say what we really think?
Well, in common parlance 'whatever'....I did anyway.
