I phoned the local council, and asked what precautions they had taken against a Dalek invasion.

They told me steps had been put in place.

Has no one told them Daleks can levitate? Typical council inefficiency.

Our local council's solution would be the politically correct one of sending the Daleks on an Anger Management Course.

And a million quid council house where the streets are paved with taxpayers gold.

And old films featuring police boxes are banned because the Dalek Council of great Britain have complained they are offensive.

If a Dalek was on benefits would it be on ESA (Electronic Support Allowance) ?

The council made a mistake, they printed the benefits guide in Klingon rather than Dalek.

A rather short teacher at Mrs RR's school was a Dalek driver back in William Hartnell days. And I had a mate who went to school with The Milky Bar Kid.

You must have been at a posh school then. Ours was like tracing paper..and nothing was going to attach itself to that.

Tracing paper was never that thick surely. The only way IZAL could be used was to roll it and try to soften it otherwise it was non-absorbent and like sandpaper. Ouch....................nice eh!

If you scrunched it up it ended up like the paper equivalent of a brillo pad.

I think it was made by a company called 'Now wash your hands'.

Our LA is re-roofing some council houses locally. They don't look like the need doing, and they have included 2 they re-roofed less than 2 years ago after the roof was burnt out in a fire.... they've also used bright red tiles that stand out like a sore thumb.

One other is replacing all the street lamps - the old ones look fine.

You have to wonder how they work out their priorities....?

Spend it to prove you need it or the budget gets slashed next year.

Daleks are part of the wider Travelling Community and we should welcome and applaud the immense contribution they could make to extending the diversity of our society. We have therefore commissioned a study and appointed a Liaison Officer to better understand how this council can meet their needs.

We fully appreciate that many hard-working families are struggling to balance their budgets due to the savage cuts imposed by the coalition government so these extra costs will be met by employing extra staff in our Parking Enforcement Division.

Yes they have those, but it's not that that make them bad people.

Daleks have mobility issues, and are entitled to use the Blue badge scheme.
