TRUE GRIT! BRIGG PEOPLE WILL BE AMUSED BY WINNING COMPETITION ENTRIES


Brigg Blog has been amused by a competition to name local authority gritting lorries, which received almost 300 entries.
Lincolnshire County Council, whose gritters come to Brigg along the A1084 when ice and snow is forecast, whittled things down to four worthy winners.
The highway authority said it was looking for creative and witty suggestions with a Lincolnshire theme.
The winners were:

  • The Spread Arrows
  • Sir Ice-acc Newton
  • The Jolly Gritterman
  • Mar-grit Thatcher (our personal favourite)
Coun Clio Perraton-Williams, Executive Support Councillor for Highways, said: "We've had some great suggestions and it was really difficult to pick just four.
"However, the winning entries were particularly creative and original and all had a distinct Lincolnshire connection.
"We'd like to thank everyone who took part – I think that we've been able to come up with four fantastic names for our gritters!"
Keep and eye out for these specially-named lorries in the Brigg area during the coming weeks when there's a Touch of Frost.
That would have made a great name for a gritter if Brigg Garden Centre was still called Frost's.
For more information on the council's gritting operations, visit https://www.lincolnshire.gov.uk/lincolnshire-prepared/weather-ready/
Perhaps North Lincolnshire Council, which undertakes most of the local gritting, will take note and run its own competition along similar lines.
It wouldn't involve any cost but would help to draw attention to the important work undertaken to keep our roads safe to drive.
If so, we'll put forward Steelers Wheels for a lorry used on the A18. The council could approach the company running the local steelworks to sponsor this nameplate.

I am one of those people who said, “I’ll never call a psychic or a magician or whatever” to help me with my problems – least of all my love problems, but I reached the point where I knew I needed some guidance, and I’m so glad I found this man called dr.ajeghe. When I nearly lost David in one of our stupid,fights (he broke up with me), I thought I had lost everything.i cry all day and think that he will never come back to me again.i read so many testimony about Dr. ajeghe love spell,how he help to bring back ex lover back.I quickly email him.and also get back my husband with his love spell. And when I was at my most desperate,he didn’t take advantage of me. You performed a very good service for a person in true need. I don’t know how you did it, or how this magic works, but all I know is, IT WORKS!! David my husband and I are happily back together, and I’ll always be grateful to dr.ajeghe email him for any kinds of help is very capable and reliable for help ajeghespelltemple@gmail.com or WhatsApp him +2349069171173

Hello everyone, I am Mia. from Oklahoma USA, I want to use this medium to appreciate Dr Ogedegbe the great black magic spell caster for the successful death spells he cast on someone for me. I contacted him when my husband left me for another woman who uses witchcraft power to take my husband. I was desperately in need of help when I found his contacts online about his genuine powers. I told him my situation and how I wanted the bitch who took my husband gone. He told me not to worry. He cast the death spells ritual on her and the bitch died in her sleep within 24hours. Now my husband  is back home and we are living happily. Thank you so much Dr Ogedegbe, You are so real and true. Below are his contacts in case you want to contact him via email dr.ogedegbe6@gmail.com or Call/WhatsApp:  +2348109374702....

Hi, guy's im Lewis...........
l recently invested my money in Bitcoin through a fake cryptocurrency broker. I was desperate to get my money back but it was unsuccessful until I learnt about ULTIMATE HACKER JERRY for his services and was able to recover all my initial investment, including 80% of my profit. I’d highly recommend Jerry anytime, any day,
