Councillors red faced after audit
TOWN councillors in Marlborough have been told to stop "bickering like a bunch of school kids" and pull together for the sake of the town.
The advice came from Culvermead Close resident Justin Oliver at the end of a long and sometimes acrimonious council meeting on Tuesday that discussed an audit report into the town's 800th Charter Anniversary celebrations last year.
The auditors' report has embarrassed the council after the celebrations, sealed with visit by Prince Charles and Camilla Parker-Bowles, were a great success.
An independent audit, costing the town more than |

The link has changed now...
Now it's about some 79 year old guy living in a library van and being forcibly evicted by the local government...
So maybe it's the link itself that has the ghost!!!

I used to drink at that pub on a semi-regular basis 20-something years ago because I liked visiting the stone circle. The only 'supernatural' thing I can remember was how strongly walking in there always reminded me of the 'pub scene' from "An American Werewolf in London".
Oh, and if you are coming into Avebury from the north, don't get too distracted by the scenery, that right-hand bend is a f**king killer!

Sorry, for a map of Avebury go to http://uk.multimap.com, search for Avebury, click zoom 2/3 times.
Off-off-topic: You'd think the people who produce these sites (Google, Multimap, etc.) would make it that the links are postable. That way people would send links to the site to each other and they'd get more hits! |

Now if they had included the picture of the "ghost in the mirror" I might have been more inclined to debunk it. As it is, I can't be bothered! |
