COLLEGE bosses were driven round the bend when a motoring organisation got the wrong date for its open night.
Blackburn College had paid the RAC more than £400 to erect 15 signs informing people of the college's two open evenings, one held on Monday and the other tonight.
But the signs, dotted around Blackburn, wrongly said the second event was being staged last night.
The RAC apologised for its error and set about replacing the signs with the correct date.
But Paul Mason, marketing manager at the college, spent Bonfire Night at the town centre facility telling anybody that went along to come back tonight.
Paul said: "We deliberately didn't hold it last night because it was Bonfire Night."
A spokesman for RAC blamed the wrong information in "human error", adding: "We have apologised to the college and rectified the mistake."
