    They should let local people take it and use it this time. Last year the councils stopped locals picking it up up for health and safety reasons :( instead they piled it up on the beach - then arsonists set light to the piles of course. I see that there is still a massive pile of it left rotting away that they brought inland and just don't seem to do anything with - what a waste.

    It was quite funny that "A stained glass panel to commemorate the Ice Prince incident was being unveiled on Worthing Pier at noon as the start of the week long Ice Prince Arts Festival" just as this new lot floated by.

    Yes, the irony wasn't lost on the local councillors as they were interviewed about it. Some of them could hardly keep a straight face:lollol:
