The unusual site banners are to bring attention to the fact that Labour activists in Bexley are manipulating Facebook Groups with fictional posters. They deny it, threaten police action for ‘harassing’ a fictitious character and then demonstrate their willingness to impersonate by creating a false Administrator account in my name. The banner on display is chosen randomly from a selection of three, with a fourth bearing the familiar Bexley Council is Bonkers logo.
23 December (Part 2) - The Horse Whisperer
I
have lost count of how many times the Belvedere Cob has been damaged by passing vehicles since it was
installed in 2011. It may be only twice, in 2019
by
an Asda lorry and earlier this year by a hit and run driver. It was not very
clever of him to
leave his work’s pass on the windscreen even if he did think to remove his number plates.
Since then the Cob has been missing from its highly vulnerable position in the
middle of a very busy roundabout.
I had half forgotten about it but a curious reader made enquiries, to whom
he didn’t say, but he reports back that it is currently the subject of a costs argument
between the vehicle insurance company and the manufacturer, but the expectation
is that it will be repaired and restored to its (not very) stable eventually.
