From Ron Flowers, Freshwater:

Regarding the ongoing debacle of the non-floating “Mac Floatie”(CP, 20-04-18), I thought it must surely be April 1 when I read that the bridge was withdrawn for maintenance work on the navigation system.

What — to follow a chain over the River Medina?

Is the Isle of Wight Council employing someone to dream up these never-ending maintenance excuses?
