'Arbeit Macht Frei"





This photo montage taken yesterday (7th November, 2010) says a lot about the shambolic way that our town council spends our money. An enormous, and unnecessary banner announces the launch of a new book on Enniscorthy, while in front of the Council Offices the seating and the 1798 memorial remain in an extremely tatty and defaced condition - see previous posts. Whatever about the cleaning of the 1798 monument, the cost of the banner would surely have covered the expense of repainting the seats and the children's playground.
At the top and bottom of Slaney Street new arches, reminiscent of the entrance to Auschwitz, have been erected. The paintwork was damaged during erection and I suspect they will soon blend in with the general tattiness of the street. Meanwhile the children's playground near the Riverside Park Hotel is allowed to go to rack and ruin. I really do despair!
