On the website at least.</p> <p>The jingle from local radio is still stuck in the depths of my brain. "Call Clarence, 0800, 23, 23, 23".</p> <p>Strathclyde had Ralf the dog. ("Road and Lighting Faults") I can't remember if Clarence was some sort of acronym for Council Lighting and Roads or that's just me inventing a backronym. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15968#post-209571 Mon, 25 Jan 2016 11:13:43 +0000 LivM 209571@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I can't find any reference to Clarence on the Council website. I wanted to report dangerous gravel on a junction and leaves on pavements, but the only thing I can see is to report litter. I must have missed something. </p>
