13th October. History Lesson.

Whilst taking down the scaffolding at the scene of the recent industrial incident I overhear Mrs P. explaining what must now be the official version of events to the local Joiner, another potential victim, who was standing below in the woodchip bin.

The explanation is that Mr P. "Fell into the woodchip bin landing on the concrete floor sustaining a collapsed lung and a fractured skull."

"He was lucky" said the potential victim - sans hard hat.

Any mention of falling objects seemed to have been airbrushed away or glossed over.

Here we are able to see "History" in the making - a mere two weeks later the scaffolding is down and the truth is soon edited, cemented over like the now obscured blood stained concrete.
