Such is the liking by our Government for authoritarian measures to control our behaviour, Invercargill streets, and those of other New Zealand centres where rugby games are to be played in the up-coming, royalty-free tournament, will be patrolled by 'ad police'. Enforcement Officers from the Ministry of Economic Development (sound dark to you? Perhaps grey and steely?) will be slinking around Invercargill streets searching for un-authorised advertising. We ought to be grateful I suppose, as such advertising is a serious threat to our well-being and the cost of these '3 or 4' Advertising Agents is a trifle compared to potential Southland lives saved. My only hope is that some enterprising business-terrorist doesn't take advantage of the Cup Fever that will grip us all over the 6 days of games here, and bang up a life-threatening hoarding that might provoke a shut-down of the city and potential loss of game-time.

Im off to build some signs now. The will probably read: 'signs for sale'

Nice.
If you're fleet enough of foot and nimble, you'd be able to affix them in some very hard-to-get-to places!
Sounds like the perfect time to advertise anything. Us Libz burn our census forms too.
Cads we are.
You'll have been peeved that they didn't send them out this year Shane.
Yes, it is hard to do guerilla marketing in the absence of gorillas.
