AND THE LIVING IS EASY

Continuing our look at odd things spotted on Brigg streets: Did you see the easy chair parked on the pavement in Cross Street last night?
And eagle-eyed Blog follower Ken Harrison reckons The Monument has magnetic attraction, as he spotted a large, shiny adjustable spanner lying in the middle of the road, near the exit leading to Bigby Street.
"An elderly cyclist, complete with helmet and tight lycro shorts, picked it up," Ken reports. "I Don't know how he was going to carry it as his shorts didn't have pockets and the spanner was almost a big as his back wheel."
Over recent weeks we have had a bath spotted nearby on the pavement and rubber gloves scattered about the A18, prompting Ken to ponder: "The roundabout isn't on a ley-line, is it?"
Any thoughts?

I saw the chair in Cross Street , I thought it was placed there for tired shoppers to rest on their way back from walking round Wilkinsons . Jim Royle of The Royle Family would think it was a fantastic gesture as the chair itself looked to be in very good condition , in fact better than poor old Jim's beaten armchair . Most likely explanation was that the chair was placed outside a property ready to be collected by the Council's Large Item Collection van ready to be thrown on the council tip. What a waste ! Rubbish my ar*e !!
