You’d think being that close to the golf, Barry Mill would be well placed to be turned into a bunker for the next British Open. So good news from the Charlotte Square Bunker that it’s to be… what’s the word they’re using – not saved, ah yes, reprieved. Now, I’m no expert in these things, but I always thought a reprieve was a postponement, a remission, a promise that the issue will return. So Kate, how long before you try and close Barry Mill again? When the Council’s money runs out? When the current bru-ha-ha dies down? When we’re all looking the other way? Come on – if it’s just sloppy reporting and you really did mean saved for ever, then leave a message on your mobile for the hacks to hack into (it’s quicker than a press release and entirely non-attributable.) If reprieve only means reprieve then don’t present this as a good news story, tell it how it really is.

REPRIEVED...OR
