  1. As this picture is going the rounds again, we’d really like the Northern Echo to try to find the older version of Miss Amanda Groves of Escomb, Co Durham*, and find out if she became a LibDem councillor after pointing at a pothole in 1972.

    *Not stalky, the details are public record.

    Amanda Groves, aged nine, injured when her bike hit a pothole in Escomb, Co. Durham (1972, Northern Echo)

Small girl with a bloodied nose and an “I am 9” badge, points wanly at a water-filled pothole. Her bike is a Raleigh Tomahawk, the junior version of the Chopper.
