GROUNDBREAKING TOUR OF BRIGG

Last night saw Brigg Town councillors and the Town Clerk leave their meeting at the Angel Suite and undertake a walking tour  to look at places where flowers and plants might be placed to add some more colour to the town centre.
We covered our first town council meeting for the press in January 1980 and this was the first time in 36 years we can remember debates being suspended while councillors went on a walkabout tour, which included Wrawby Street, the Market Place, Bridge Street and Ancholme Way.
Town Mayor Coun James Truepenny then reconvened the meeting to discuss their findings.

A town councillor walks into the florist.
'I'd like some flowers, please.'
'What sort? What is the occasion?', enquired the florist.
'Errr..Hmmm..it's a bit difficult, really', quivered the councillor.
'Ok...let's take it gently...how exactly have you annoyed the town clerk?'.....

Station Road is not an option for obvious reasons
