You should be able to drive on concrete without it cracking.! The cracks that are there have been there from day one when they laid the concrete. Not been laid correctly and wrong spec on plans.

No you’re really not getting the purpose of the DOI. They aren’t there to improve anything. They’re there to live out their own personal fantasies about being vaguely competent big town planners in somewhere like Paris or Munich. What Robinson and his team would be really good at is building an It’s A Knockout course. If they could find a way of making your trip to Tescos having you avoid water cannons, balancing tyres on your head, and riding a bike with oversized rubber feet just to make something that should be simple as difficult as it could possibly be they would. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Namely, one Jeffrey Robinson hopefully. Richmond Hill St Mark's Planter Fiasco That Bus Lane The tragic crossing at St Johns Oh, and Douglas Prom to name but a few The man is a walking disaster. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
