has anybody seen?

has anybody seen the banner hanging from the railway bridge next to quickfit..

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???? :D


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 couldn't tell you its exact point yet but its famous all around the country :D everytime I tell somebody I'm going to Lancaster they even bring it up.

Edit: Think its part of the castle willow.

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.
 
Oh don't worry Blazey, we're good at thread wandering. We usually get back on topic eventually.

I wonder if there has been any bother in town or if this was just a lone protestor making a statement about our Cllr. Dobson.

I didn't stay down there very long and I had been to Blackburn earlier in the morning so if there was any hoohah then I missed it.

(P.S. - just found out there is a Lancaster Tower at Windsor Castle. That's a bit like Leeds Castle being in Kent isn't it?)

I dont know but its lancaster as a town that has the suicide rate...
 
That's two good reasons I have now to be glad we didn't move there then - the other was the recent flood warnings which are far worse than the Accy ones.

Anyway, does anybody know if there was any serious bother then or was this banner the sum total of the protest?
 
I've always found Mayor Dobson an absolute pleasure to converse with.

I've no idea what the banners claims of "corruption" are. I do wish people would express themselves a bit more when they claim such rubbish!
