I've been watching The Brittas Empire a bit recently. You laugh at things like that (well if it's working properly you do) but people like Gordon Brittas actually exist. Those pernickity (I like that word) people who have to adhere to details slavishly have been released into the community as people who write to the local paper every week. I saw such an example of this a few weeks ago and how i wished I'd kept it. The gist of the letter was that this guy called Richard Gosling (remember the name) was saying how Dunorlan Park in Tunbridge Wells was always in a poor state. He said something along these lines... "I went to Dunorlan Park on Saturday with my camera for the express purpose of photographing any ruts left by bikes, or dog faeces to present as evidence to the council but I was delighted to find none." I know I don't have much of a life but what person would choose to spend their Saturdays photographing dog faeces?! I just don't understand. It's a good thing that there was none but why go looking for it? With a camera! It makes me sad for people like this.
