Flyers for Billy & Tim stuck under someone's windscreen. This is frowned on.

Flyers for Billy & Tim stuck under someone's windscreen. This is frowned on.

Flyers for "Singin' I'm No a Billie, She's a Tim" stuck into windscreen wipers and also plastered over other performers poster. Unacceptable, the @edfringe.bsky.social has rules for flyers and promotion.
