What the heck?

[WillowTheWhisp]

Approaching Accrington along Hyndburn Road we reach the viaduct roundabout and what do we see? A cardboard cutout crown?

It's being propped up at the back.

What does that say in the white banner at the front?

I think it's meant to refer to the Queen's 80th birthday but looks more like it says "Fils 50" Who the heck is Fil?

 

[WillowTheWhisp]

Today all has become clear. The purple flowers have come out a little more and now it clearly says "PALS 80" so was nothing to do with the Queen's birthday!

 

[Gayle]

Shouldn't it say Pals 90?

 

[WillowTheWhisp]

I think it's meant to say PALS 90 but the flowers have joined up at the bottom left and it looked more like 80!

Is it something to do with the battle of the somm..90th anniversary?

 

[Madhatter]

Willow, that could go in the photo comp, could it not ? (trying to round up business here). Seen it myself, floral display gorgeous, but that yellow and red cut out .. well... luv that smiley, don't you? but laughter good for yer anyway.

I like the flowers but that crown lets it down... dont you reckon?

 

[WillowTheWhisp]

The crown was relevant but it could have done with being a better crown I agree.
