I love the site http://glumcouncillors.tumblr.com/ – mostly because I guiltily recognise all of the painful situations. It was, therefore, almost inevitable (yet no less mortifying) that I be featured eventually.
In my defence, writing about potholes seems to maintain an audience of over 2,500 visits each month and that in addition to “remorselessly cataloguing in exhaustive detail every minor ailment” I do get a lot of them fixed. Nonetheless, well done glumcouncillors, I have been caught and will try to be more cheerful in future.
To be fair, nitpicking is your job – I’m sure no one wants a councillor that says ‘my area is excellent and so any problems it faces are irrelevant and should be ignored’.
