There isn’t much that can be done about stupid, is there? My husband was bursar/business manager at a school and in charge of anything that didn’t involve actual teaching. Once, a senior student used weed-killer to write ‘F*ck you, Mr Whatever’ on the grassed playing field. It took a few days before the message was visible. Vince immediately asked the grounds manager to organise to have to the offending area cut out and replanted with new turf. The workman assigned to the task very carefully cut around the actual words so that now ‘F*ck you, Mr Whatever was still plainly visible but in nice, new green lawn. Duh! The photo shows the lovely bowling green in our old home town.
