    Somebody must have thought they'd have trouble finding their way home after a few pints. :)

    It's being put up by taxi drivers, with some support from bus drivers, it'll eventually be strung up right the way around the city. That way when someone asks how long it'll take to get from x to y, they can reach out the window, grab the appropriate piece of string and see how long it is.

    Surely if it was a promotion they could be done for litter..

    W: Aah. Now, I understand you want us to advertise your washing powder.
    S: String.
    W: String, washing powder, what's the difference. We can sell *anything*.
    S: Good. Well I have this large quantity of string, a hundred and twenty-two
    thousand *miles* of it to be exact, which I inherited, and I thought if I
    advertised it--
    W: Of course! A national campaign. Useful stuff, string, no trouble there.
    S: Ah, but there's a snag, you see. Due to bad planning, the hundred and
    twenty-two thousand miles is in three inch lengths. So it's not very
    useful.
    W: Well, that's our selling point!
