Council in GB Pays For Duck-House...!!!

Postby bill cobbett » Mon Nov 05, 2012 7:39 pm

Been up to do some shopping in our local High Street here somewhere in North London.

As have done for decades, parked up in the same place alongside a very nice bit of Common and strolled down to the shops, a very pleasant five mins walk away.

There's a small pond there (whose location must remain secret less Bordo pays a visit) which is very popular with ducks. Loads of them.

... and since last visiting a few days ago our local council has spent God only knows how much of the money of the Borough's Hard-Pressed Rate-payers in building the ducks a Duck-House in the middle of the pond..!!!

In these difficult times when front-line services are being cut, the Council builds, of all things, a Duck-House...!!!

...of all things...??? Some of you will remember the little matter a GB MP who built an albeit much more lavish and luxurious flipping, bleeding Duck-House on his estate at Public Expense by trying to claim it was a legitimate out-going on his MP's Expenses Claim.

Now, if you'll excuse, will have to email local council to find out how much this damned thing cost...!!!

I am told a naughty trick with ducks is to tie some bacon rind to a long bit of fishing line and throw it in a duck-pond....allegedly ducks cannot absorb bacon rind so as they each in turn eat it one ends up with a line full of ducks.....
