I know that a lot of people are keen on intrigue and conundrums. So here is a real one for you. You may be aware that there is a community noticeboard near to the entrance to the Aldi store in Milnsbridge. The board was paid for from council funding a few years ago and is for the use of local community organisations and groups. Aldi do not have a key. Keys are in the possession of a limited number of people connected with the said organisations.
Sometime before Friday of last week someone who has not been authorised has changed the lock thereby denying the legitimate groups access. To date they have not posted anything on the noticeboard.
Aldi have not changed the lock nor have the council or any of the key holders I have contacted.
So - has anyone seen somebody messing around and changing the lock or got any bright ideas as to the culprit? Is it a convoluted form of vandalism or just a trouble causing anti social nuisance or is there a simple innocent explanation which to date, has eluded me?
