On Cobbs Corner Roundabout

Post by stone-penge »

Has anyone else seen the small naval boat manned by blue uniformed sailors and guarded by gnomes on the roundabout.

Splendid!

Cheers up a miserably ugly edifice beautifully! Maybe we should invite those with artistic flare to come up with other ideas for improving this eyesore -

They've set sail for another port. What a shame.

(Perhaps the roundabout at Goose Green was more appealing because of the bars and restaurants in ED!!)
