Surely this story should lead the paper, a hole in the ground ! The council should be looking into it

it's elf n safety that's what that is, people could be killed and look at the adverse publcity that this will bring the pub owned by the father of well known singer Bill Young, they must be worried. I wonder who leaked the story about the hole ? perhaps a disgruntled patron, let's hope they sort soon before the story gets too far and ending up in the Daily Mail, perhaps it was dug by immigrants ?

It could possibly be sign of alien invasion, the end of the world, maybe it's what they council dug themselves.
I sent an SMS Text to Mrs T. She said "maybe it's an Australian ha lol xo" . I think she confuses me some times.

This could make the nationals as you say!
Oh my god if Littlejohn gets hold of it they don't stand a chance!

would the council know its ar*e from a hole in the ground? in my experience no -it would conduct a site visit and several consultations before coming to an inconclusive answer

perhaps it's an attempt by Kirby to tunnel out of Wash Common, or may be this is the first new allotment to be self managed, the new vertical space saving allotment ?

Near a tree by a river
there's a hole in the ground
where an old man of saran
goes around and around.

It's the real version of Colossal Cave Adventure.

Anyone remember it?

Maybe they did and fell into the hole. Maybe we should now have an investigation into a kidnapping by mole men or aliens buriers of humans.


Didn't they have a similar problem in Blackburn, Lancashire? If I am correct didn't the Beatles write about it?


I've reproduced the lyrics here in the hope that it will help you with this problem; they were wise those Beatle chaps.



read the news today oh boy
About a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph.
He blew his mind out in a car
He didn't notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen his face before
Nobody was really sure
If he was from the House of Lords.
I saw a film today oh boy
The English Army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
but I just had to look
Having read the book.
I'd love to turn you on
Woke up, fell out of bed,
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup,
And looking up I noticed I was late.
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke,
Somebody spoke and I went into a dream
I read the news today oh boy
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall.
I'd love to turn you on

Cheddar has its Gorge
Wookie has its Hole
Great Shefford has its ditch.

Stick a tent over it a charge the public £1 to see it.

Remember it? How could I forget? It's the first computer game I ever played, when I worked for DEC in Reading. Adventure games were unknown before that and the concept was totally new. In the days before the internet, someone brought it back on a magnetic tape from the US office. It was written in FORTRAN.

If you look down the hole, you may see Newbury Town Council digging themselves in even deeper.
