I see it every morning on the way in and keep meaning to get a picture. As you can see it's massive and just floats around. Mental but cool as fuck.

Coops · 11-03-2008, 07:12

Yeah, I've seen that on many blogs/sites. Looks amazing - I wish I passed it on the way to work every day!

because one end you get you get narrow minded souls from the general populace stating how many council houses you could have built with the money.

and the other end you narrow minded council bodies auguring:

why the sculpture wouldn't be just as good 2m high?

And why can't it be a realistic duck instead of a silly toy one?

Actually.. lets just do a nice sculpture of a local person of note instead.. or build a small brick clock tower?

ooh look, fountains in the floor.

not that i am cynical.

Be great if it broke free and interfered with the shipping lanes. I can imagine some kind of freakish Titanic reenactment.

I wouldn't mind if 0.0001% of my tax would go towards a massive rubber duck.

But its true, the UK is full of opinionated twats with too much time on their hands who kick up a fuss about public spending.

Like if a new sculpture gets built, everyone goes on about how many new hospital beds could have been made, or how many potholes could have been repaired for the money.
