Luckily the huge weight of ev cars will compress tarmac and make it even stronger than it was before.  No way are they going more wear and tear.  No sirreeeee

Quote from: GrannyMac on Today at 06:11:59 PMIt was my birthday last week, I've had a weekend away in Leicestershire at a lovely spa, with my daughter and daughter in law and some friends.  Fabulous place, we've been going for quite a few years, it's a real treat.  Unfortunately the facial, lovely as it was, hasn't knocked thirty years off!

Back to normality (whatever that is) now, but can't complain.  Had some blood results, I'm no longer pre-diabetic  and the postie brought me news of a small win on the Premium Bonds 

How wonderful - the Spa, the Premium win, and the escape from pre-diabetes.  They say things come in threes!

The head twonk was the main problem in the days before I was banned.

I hhope he gets that sodding Amazon bot paying a visit 

 indeed

Hi again GM, I don't have any problems with PF although there are a number of twonks on there that I have blocked but all in all I am ok with it.

Mr Wilson liked to brag about his new electric car
Only costs £5 a charge he says but never says how far

Will is sorted but no power of attorney done.

That comment spurred me into nipping up the road to take a photo. This junction is virtually never free of a hole sometimes very deep ones. By the time they turn up to fix one there is another starting. At one point they did do a big patch but that is now overlaid by a patchwork of small repairs. It doesn't show well in the picture but a fresh hole is appearing at the edge of an old repair before the latest patch has lost its newly done look.

This junction gets a hammering as there is a school just up the road and impatient parents trying to make it onto the main road seem to all be budding drag racer stars. Or possibly already are as the Santa Pod drag track is quite near.




Just to be clear the yellow arrows were added to the pictute by me. They are not the magic spray paint that many councils seem to think actually repair the holes.

I fear I'd be described as one and I don't even like the term 'elderly'. I'm an older person, thank you very much.
