admin: split from "dogs and environmental wardens" thread

Just another wee thought.
After the gatherings and behaviour round here the last few nights a ned DNA data base would be grand idea.
Though I think the 2 we saw being lifted by the police may be getting entered into one soon

I've had several pm's with some good suggestions for themes which I will share when I have more time.
Realistically the people of Porty are not going to put up with great piles of poo on the beach. And I also don't think its reasonable to expect artists to work with raw poo.

I suggest we park the poo at joppa and create a mini waste transfer station (by mini I mean one person with a domestic tractor) - from August to June we move and store on fisherow beach.

And for the second issue we go to woodwares and buy that special treatment stuff artists use when they are working with excrement. - simples

Apparently many years ago men were paid per bucket of dog crap they collected. It was taken to the tannery where the leather was 'cured' using the poo (minor detail - not sure HOW the process worked - did they rub it in, did they smoke it??). Anyway, I reckon we could reintroduce this ancient art and make unique items from authentic Porty Poo leather.

Brilliant Epy
Now where to locate the tannery, might be a problem.
Maybe not in the High St, perhaps up the Portobello Road?
:lol:

PS she's right about the poo. See
