EVERY SEAT TAKEN IN BRIGG

We glanced across to the riverbank from the footpath on the Ancholme Way bridge beside the A18 and every public seat beside the river  was occupied.

Brigg folk, visitors and in-town workers were enjoying a break watching the cool water flow by on a hot day.

This is heartening news for councillors who provide what in local government speak is Street Furniture.

From time to time it has to be repaired or refurbished. But this is worthwhile as long as people use the facilities provided.
