I don't care if it's not true, just indulge us.

Piers Morgan found duck-taped to a wind turbine?

Ah. I remember as a kid a similar poll-tax related story as where someone allegedly paid in pennies and dumped it on council floor.

Not quite same scale though!

(If someone wants to make the duct tape story true, count me in.)

Only Mr Morgan makes me feel that way, but in the name of equality of inertia, Jeremy Vine.

fair play - i guess you could just stick Piers up there and sit back and watch the thing slowly spin itself to bits like an unbalanced washing machine

Shit story, coins are only legal tender up to a certain amount! In the case of pennies, only up to 20 pence!

Didn't believe this when I first read it, and apparently that is absolutely correct http://www.royalmint.com/aboutus/policies-and-guidelines/legal-tender-guidelines

Can we have a three bladed wind turbine, with Piers Morgan, Jeremy Vine and Jeremy Clarkson all taped to individual blades, with it running during a rather fierce gale, and a massive flock of seagulls with diarrhea flying over it repeatedly.

The wheelbarrow story actually happened in the early 90's.
It made the papers, 6'o clock news, etc.
The council refused to accept if because they @didnt hVe the facilities to count and store" that much coinage.
