A few weeks ago, Brighton & Hove City Council notified us of their intention to install new dry riser mains in all the blocks of flats on our little estate. They said we'd be contacted nearer the time to let us know when it might happen. Which is handy, because I'll need an alibi when everyone starts accusing me of doing the drilling.
Sure enough, I returned home from work today to find a notice from the building contractors, which has been delivered to every flat in the block, outlining the planned work and the likely disruption it will cause.
Now, there are some people out there who lament the current standards of reading and writing in this great nation of ours, and claim that the generally low levels of literacy displayed by the average member of the British workforce is dragging this country down.
Personally I disagree...
It's that reluctance to employ copywriters, proof-readers or indeed anyone who can actually write English, which is keeping our council taxes down.
