Well, I was thinking of running a poster campaign. What I'd have is
pictures of piles of cash and maybe somnice pithy lines like:

"This is the amount of cash we'd have been able to spend on something
 useful if we hadn't spent it on these bloody posters"

or

"At least 95% of the people on the Committee wasting this money are women."

and I'd have a Pound sign at the bottom so that eventually I'd be able
to put up posters with a huge Pound sign and people would know what it
meant :-)

So, anyone want to help design the posters? I figure half a dozen A0
size, some flour paste, and a midnight raid on Princes Street should
produce some interesting comment :-)
