Council trial new street lamps in an attempt to save money
P1300767 - Recent budget cuts have led the local council to finding alternatives on services provided. Our roving reporter has saw a number of these 30-40 foot snow drops previous and was unsure what they were to be used for.
A council spokesperson said they were still testing the usefulness of these street lamps, but said they felt the dual purpose of carbon absorption and oxygen production with the gas lamp shades seem to fit into the environment and recent directives from Brussels.
Following up on the Brussels connection we had no comment from the Brussels representative when we met him on the local allotment .

Packed
We didn't get the Uhaul until Saturday morning and we were having a going away party that night and leaving Sunday morning. We started to pack the Uhaul and when we finally got the king-sized bed shoved in there it just seemed too daunting for me. Luckily, a friend, Kelly, came over and tetrised everything in there. If she hadn't come over I think we would have been standing there staring for quite some time. While she packed I made it my job to get everything out of the house so she could find the right size to fit any given hole she could find. We got out of there by 5pm, with plenty of time to spare for our 7pm party.
