In Tunbridge Wells the local press and social media is not short of material publicising daft ideas for infrastructure developments. Often there is a short period of frenetic support for an idea, usually by the groupies for whom the originator of an idea can do no wrong. After this burst of activity, nothing. The recent nonsense regarding the development of the Odeon site is a classic.
The daftest idea I read was the proposal that a shaft be sunk at Fiveways and a passenger station built in the railway tunnel. Sadly the name of the originator of this proposal escapes me but he/she is my choice for the Twerp of the Year Award.
