Tina and my favourite restaurant in Winchester is Los Amigos, run by the lovely Vincenzo.And rather than have it cluttering up the roads (which I strong disagree with, see my article Ban the Bicycle) he uses a pushbike parked in the High Street to advertise his wonderful continental cuisine.
In theory, anyway.
Winchester City Council, world renowned for their opposition to any successful business enterprise in Winchester, is threatening to take the bike away as 'illegal advertising.'
It seems our council, aside from charging London tax rates, is deliberately stomping on anything approaching original enterprise in our fair city.
They need to be stopped.
Bicycle sign "must go"
THE owners of a Winchester restaurant say they feel they are being picked on after county bosses ordered them to remove their advertising bike.
Since September Vincenzo Panunzio and his business partner, Carlos Rodriguez have parked a bicycle with a chalkboard advertising their restaurant attached, on a bike stand outside Monsoon, in the High Street. Full story here.
