trumpton riots Jul 2023 7:01pm, 19 Jul 2023 4,665 posts	Quote Pin trumpton riots I would extend the laminated flyers to "caution cyclists" or "caution runners in road" signs, left out weeks after an event has happened. If you need to put them out, then you need to take them down
Surrey Phil Jul 2023 8:49pm, 19 Jul 2023 9,582 posts	Quote Pin Surrey Phil I always mention that I have put up the sign with the council's permission and that it will be taken down after the event. Which is usually within an hour or two of it finishing.
