·17 October 2012

A local café’s dispute with Cardiff Council over the placement of outside furniture was resolved, thanks to an overwhelming reaction on Twitter.

Early on Monday morning Thé Pot owner Natalie Eddins tweeted that, subsequent to being told she could not place chairs and tables outside her property due to a lack of space, bicycle rails had been erected outside her shop.

The resulting response on Twitter was a massive one, with supporters pledging their loyalty to Ms Eddins’s business and complaining to the council through an online form.

Following the complaints the council has agreed to move the rails five yards to the left. Ms Eddins sent the news to her supporters on Twitter saying, “Thank you so much for your support you guys.”
