Tee hee.

From The Daily Mail:

A bizarre row between two councils over who should mow a playing field has led to only one half being trimmed - while the other half's grass has grown four inches high. Walsall Council and Sandwell Council cannot agree which authority has responsibility for the field, resulting in each cutting their half of the three-acre site at different times of the year...

The leader of Sandwell Council, Cllr Darren Cooper, said...

"We are satisfied that our area is kept in a good condition and I we will be talking to the Walsall Council leader to see what we can do to make sure that this work is done as a combined effort in the future.

"This will be the case of the new combined authority proposals working well, even at grass roots level."


Well played, sir!

When he says "4 inches" does he really mean 2?
