STAYING PROTECTED

There's a price to pay for safety in local government - even during the season of goodwill.
It cost Brigg Town Council £70.17p to hire the small barrier placed round the Christmas tree in the Market Place, covering the period December 1-31.
Incidentally, the council is renewing its membership of the Council for the Protection of Rural England - at a cost of £29.

    I can let them have a couple of 5' canes and some string with bits of red tassel on it for 10 bob a day.
    Just ask the Town Council to contact me for further details.
