We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember PJ saying something like:
advert. The full sign might be a useful thing to let motorists know where to avoid.

up on sponsoring a roundabout I suppose.
There is something odd about this, I've never heard of it at all, its never been in the local rag or on local radio. At first I thought it was an April Fool gag. SWMBO works for Medway Council & she's never heard of it either.

Oi. Overall, its a lovely area. Few duff bits of course, but we have the finest Norman keep in the country, a superb cathedral, historic dockyard, Rochester High St has more listed buildings than you could shake a stick at, a university etc.

Three universities, actually....well, satellite campuses all three....
Medway Council couldn't get it right, though, they say:
"A council spokesman said today: 'Medway Council recently carried out an initial feasibility study which involved putting up scaffolding to attach a letter E - the second letter in Medway - on land overlooking the M2."
Surely they should have used an M (it was an initial study, after all...)... [hides]

So which bit of paradise are you from then?
The 3-bed semi in Rochester has already got decking.
They could save a bit by getting a quantity discount on the M and using one upside-down for the W.

If it is popular, it will cost a fortune in ongoing maintenance over the years.
If it is unpopular, it will disintegrate or be vandalised and so be a lot of money to waste.
Some interesting bits here:
Didn't Anvil Plant have a uge depot there?
If you reckon that Dartford, well known cultural wilderness, is better than the Medway Towns you should stop taking the illegal substances :-)
