Get over it, it's ancient history
I'm not denying that. But if you think religious extremists conducting genocide in the middle east is worth "celebrating" then by all means let's hear your argument for it.Statistics:Posted by james — Thu 01 Mar, 2018 10:52 am

Like others I’m puzzled by the train and what’s the ‘evolution of man’ thing about (although to be fair there’s a few Neanderthals about in town on a Friday night)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_Russel_Wallace"Alfred Russel Wallace was a British naturalist, explorer, geographer, anthropologist, and biologist. He is best known for independently conceiving the theory of evolution through natural selection; his paper on the subject was jointly published with some of Charles Darwin's writings in 1858.This prompted Darwin to publish his own ideas in On the Origin of Species.
....
When Wallace was five years old, his family moved to Hertford. There he attended Hertford Grammar School "

I'm struggling to see the racism ?
Am I so institutionally racist that I can't even see it ?

They could have had the decapitated statue in St Andrew St and the ‘piles of rubbish’ after the music festival too.

Now updated. Marginally better. Still racist.

Do I need to re-evaluate my race ?

Nevermind the train. What about that Crusader? Who the hell thought celebrating the Crusades was a great idea?The banner looks as if it was done by a schoolchild. And why the railroad train in the top left?

Is it quiz time to name the significance to Hertford for each of the images?Statistics:Posted by TullochArd — Tue 27 Feb, 2018 2:30 pm

Just seen the bottom left image - is the Underground being extended to Hertford then?? 
I hope so, and it better be 24hr - It'll mean I wouldn't have to get that post 11pm panic when I'm in London!Saying that, I'm now told the Jungle Bar has a 3am licence....

- this is to go on a listed building??
- a lot of the images are either historically or culturally inappropriate
- I am going to presume the work was done by students so wont be too disparaging about the quality of some of the images
The worst thing though is that it "advertises" only one of the schools in Hertford and ignores the others, one of which is actually closer. As a banner at one of the gateways to Hertford why would that be allowed? I know RHS celebrates its 400 years (last year) but it had an awful lot of other stuff going on last year not for celebration, results included. Perhaps that's why the advert is needed?
