Commiserations to SpongeBob Squarepants who went to Wolverhampton's Market Square the other evening to turn on the Christmas lights, only to be prevented from doing so by the local council.
For why?
Seemingly health and safety rules deemed that SpongeBob was just too wide to walk up five steps onto the platform, where he was meant to press the button.
All very well I suppose, if he really couldn't mount (can I use the word "mount" before the watershed?) the steps.
However, one would have thought that the council should have thought of that before they spent £2,000 of taxpayers' money on hiring Mr Squarepants to appear.
Yes, you did read that correctly......£2,000!
For £50 and a drink I would have done it in any costume they wanted!
One wonders where local councils keep their brains when they come up with schemes to waste our money?
