That van would fit between those bollards anyway. Bit unprofessional to mix concrete directly on the slabs though.

The van can get out easy, just remove the photoshoped bollard that has the incorrect base, all the others have no slab round them but the wrong un sits on a slab.

Eddie is right, the post behind the van is a ringer. But the funny thing is you just know that it has happened for real at some time, the old paint/screed yourself into a corner trick!

http://www.snopes.com/photos/automobiles/bollards.aspBit of trivia for you, they are called cannon bollards because the first ones were all the redundant cannons from the Royal Navy sunk into the ground with an oversize cannon ball hammered in to stop the thing filling up with rainwater. They also used them to support the early oil based streetlighting columns.

Well Spotted. The bollard at the bottom right ofthe screen is the same one as the second one down on the left.

It has been edited to look different, but the light/dark spots on the bottom in exactly the same place, just lightened a bit...

Still, cleverly done...
