THE continuing farce about the 'A' Boards in Ely seems to miss one essential point. The only reason that anyone puts advertising boards out is to advertise, and to advertise they needs to be noticed. So, by their very nature, 'A' Boards are there to catch your eye, not your shin. This doesn't hold true for black posts stuck in the middle of alleyways, but as they were put there by the council they are legal, acceptable and very real hazards to pedestrians.
