    "Organisers are banking on the revenue achieved from selling the ad space and would be forced to scale back fireworks planned for September 13 if the plan falls through.

    That would be a shame.*

    *Living in Edinburgh has seriously diminished my respect towards, interest in and awe of fireworks.

    From the article:

    This view was echoed by Neil Greig, of the Institute of Advanced Motorists, who said: “The Forth Road Bridge is an old-fashioned dual carriageway and you need your wits about you when crossing it.

    Presumably on the modern dual carriageways, you can just dreamily let your attention wander.

    ROADSIDE advertising distracted drivers most famously during the 1990s when a ten-foot high billboard featured Czech model Eva Herzigova in Wonderbra’s “Hello boys” campaign. The ad sparked a sensation when it was unveiled in 1994 and was blamed for stopping traffic and causing accidents as commuters stared at the huge posters

    Thats a euphemism I have never heard before. ;O)
