Has someone proposed to someone with one? I haven't seen anyone do THAT for ages.

I also had the idea of a really melodramatic suicide note but that isnt really the ideal part of the bridge for a suicide, I would've thought the big bridge would be better for that if you were going to go to lengths of writing your suicide note really large on a banner.

Speaking of suicides, I'm going to Lancaster in just over a week, highest suicide rate in the country I believe thanks to Lancaster tower.

That's the MAYOR????


Actually I saw something going on at the Town Hall when I came back from Blackburn on the bus a little while ago and some of the streets had been closed off (Dutton St and Church St)

This may be a dumb question but where's Lancaster Tower? I go every year but I didn't know it had a tower.

I didn't know our mayor was an elephant but that may explain why PB's photo went in that publication in his place.

I can only think of the John O'Gaunt Tower part of the castle but people can't get up that to fling themselves off as it's part of the prison. There's a bit of a wall round one side of the castle that you could jump off I suppose if you felt that way inclined but I'm not sure it's high enough to commit suicide from, probably get a broken leg or something. I'm really puzzled now.

Oooer, just seen the banner. If there was a sort of mayor signing in thing going on that would explain police and closed off streets if they think there might be a spot of bother.

I couldn't really point you to any sources because I've only been told over and over again by other people. I know I wont be jumping off anything so I dont really need to know everything anyway. I haven't looked for info on lancasters tourist attractions.... i will have to look so I dont ruin the thread lol by asking u questions willow.
