The Swindon Covid Tribute

[bitchstewie]

It's not exactly headline news and I get that it's as simple as someone messed up but when you see this I really do wonder how come at no point any of the people involved queried any of it

Swindon council apologises for error-strewn Covid key worker tribute

[BabySharkDD]

I wonder how much that masterpiece cost?

No i. Dea

Hope they tidy up the grammar as well. Shouldn't it start "This tree has been planted by the borough .... etc". Or perhaps: "This tree has been planted in appreciation of the borough's key workers .... etc"?

Jesus wept!!!!
What's with all the mixed up capital letters all over the place? Did the councillors farm this out to a primary school?

Swindon. Say no more.

Needs “Sent from my iPhone” at the bottom to make it perfect.

A plaque to honour with honour spelt wrong.

One for the ‘Council’ thread.

It’s Swindon. It’ll be graffiti’d over, nicked or set alight soon enough.

If they were experiencing a pandemic in March 2019, then it was pretty selfish of them not to let the rest of us know what was coming.

More seriously, is that a genuine image, or is it a spoof? It seems too bad to be true.

It's genuine.

I saw it yesterday but assumed it couldn't be real because it's too bad to be true.

Now bear with me...
Council bod A: I wrote a sign, it says "For Our Key Workers and Volunteers, For Their Selflessness and Dedication During the Covid Pandemic"
Council bod B: "I'll add in some more words, more words = better"

[Donbot]

Probably got too distracted by the TikTok videos to spell check it.

I'd just like to say I had nothing to do with the Plaque

Secondly, for the love of god, will you please learn basic punctuation. It makes reading your posts painful and serves to reenforce the idea that nothing you say should be taken seriously.
