And Finally...Covering All Bases

There are things you expect to get in return for your Council Tax dollar; a regular bin collection, plenty of police on the streets and a fast, responsive fire service. It’s nice to know, however, that some councils like to go above and beyond the call of duty…

City authorities in Gelsenkirchen in Germany were left red faced after accidentally offering pornography alongside the more traditional services available for residents.

Apparently the error arose when the employee compiling the list thought that brothel owners might type the word ‘porn’ into the website search engine to find out about the city’s sex tax.

Unfortunately for expectant residents, the word has now been removed and the City has clarified the incident as “a mistake”.

…don’t they have Ann Summers in Germany?
