# One unnamed woman told Auntie:
'Owls are the symbol of Oldham so I would have thought if they put an owl in the middle of there it would be better.'

Why 90% of the public don't do graphic design.

# it should have 100 owls chasing CDCs over the moors
far more symbolic and helps you remember never to go to Oldham

# Ha ha :)
But it's a strange thing. Having designed a fair few logo type gubbins for public bodies, companies, councils and the like, a brainstorming session with the client will ALLWAYS with-out-fail feature them saying.... "well I thought you could do a circle and put "insert client relevant thing" inside it"

Must be the way we are all wired up the same....

# I designed about a dozen

# thank fuck for that
i was worried they were only giving you biscuits, free tea is much greater than free biscuits (although both is exponentially greater)
