Lonan3 Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 IIRC, the Corpy were appointing their own 'wardens' to ensure that bye-laws were adhered to. Does littering come under that heading? And if it does, what are they doing about it? The posters are certainly disgraceful and give an entirely inappropriate impression to our visitors.

sarahc Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 I think wardens are byelaw officers, that would make them able to issue the fines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karellen Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 I dont get the correlation between nose picking and littering. If the corpy wanted to discourage littering with this campaign, then why show nose picking? They should instead show the result of louts who sling their McDonalds bags out into the road withour a care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Fox Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Nothing like a good nose picking ..Especialy when your'e stuck at in a queue behind a digger... Its even better if your nails are long, cos' you can get right to the top shelf.. Then in full root, finger as far up as it can go, you locate a lovely squishy boogie.. then you feel the urge to turn round, but on doing so, you look straight into the eyes of another driverer in the lane beside ...........

Furry Mongoose Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 Of course... the replacements are so much better! There's one thing I like looking at when I walk out of work each day - and that's a poster with a pile of xxxx... My personal feelings is maybe to drop the shock tactics - get something not quite as minging for anyone getting off the boat - and place a lot more bins. There's nothing worse than walking about Douglas for 20 mins holding an empty coke bottle or whatever just because no one can be arsed putting bins anywhere that isn't Strand Street and the Prom..

ans Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 There's nothing worse than walking about Douglas for 20 mins holding an empty coke bottle or whatever just because no one can be arsed putting bins anywhere that isn't Strand Street and the Prom.. Totally agree. It's one of the major differences I notice when I go to a European city. There's no excuse to drop litter because there's a bin no more than a dozen paces away at all times. So much cleaner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyconcrete Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 It the most bizarre marketing strategy I've ever seen. It's like having a poster of man making love to an otter, saying "Disgusting isn't it? So is dropping chewing gum". That would certainly raise some eyebrows.
