Title: Cheap, cheap, cheap.
Post by: Inspector Knacker on October 12, 2021, 12: AM
Are any roundabouts still carrying those tacky little advertising boards anymore...c'mon, sticking adverts on a roundabout must be the worst way to present your town to the visitor.
No one ever reads the, no one can read them when driving around a roundabout, so why bother.....?
Why not check out members of the Legion of the Damned ex Councillors, offer them a pittance and give them a sandwich board each and they can trudge the streets, no one will read them but it will make the public laugh spontaneously, which is no bad thing.

WANTED...Sandwich Board operatives.

Would suit someone used to trudging the streets aimlessly.
Formal training will be given and protective clothing provided.
Chuntering skills are required and the ability to talk absolute bo***cks
would be a positive asset, hence the preference for ex 'politicians'.
If interested, contact me, ...Chutney Merryweather, (Director of Staples and Elastic Bands) on Wagga 1212 or, contact me at Tumbleweed Junction, bus shelter No 3.

They wouldn't go for anything that uses the word 'sandwich board' ... would need to be 'full luxury buffet' board ...
