Cola truck will not be visiting this year after the success of last year. Following the list of
location that has been revealed it is clear that the closest place the Grimsby families can
enjoy the Coca-Cola van for a second time is Briddleton. We now join a member of the
local council to hear their the thoughts on the situation.
Coca Cola Interview
2. Interviewer - Can you give us some kind of insight into why the Coca-cola truck won't be
coming this year?
(Response) Answer: It just wasn't fundable i'm afraid. Other locations had such a higher
demand and we didn't think a high enough profit was going to be made.
Interviewer - Can we expect to see a return in the years to come?
Answer: Hopeful the truck with be fundable for the next following year and possibly more
to come. If I demand increases than our efforts to bring the truck to local families of
Grimsby will increase.
Interviewer - How do you think the public will feel about this decision?
Answer: I think that the public disappointed especially with young children who often
come out to see the truck.
Interviewer - Are you happy with this decision?
Answer: It's a shame we couldn't get the truck this year so no i'm not happy about this
but there's nothing much that could've been done;hopefullynext year will have a
different outcome.
Interviewer - Thank you verymuch for your time.
Presenter:Now something to gain everyone's attention, Mutant rats have begun to nest
in people’s homes due to the winter months approaching. It’s said that one of this
rodents can grow as large as a cat and are immune to normal household pesticide. So
best to check the next time you're throwing the trash out. These rats are getting into
homes all across Lincolnshire so it's best to check under your house for any nests. If any
are found or you are suspicious it has been advised to call pest control as soon as
possible as they will be dealing with this case.
Presenter:Finally for today, thousand had turned out to watch the firework display at
Pleasure Island last week. The park played host to a mixed halloween and bonfire night

major success in many people's opinion raising a large amount, of £60,000.
