That piece of road is shocking, will it take a accident to ever get anything done or is it they just don’t have to skill set to fix it. Isn't that whole section of road trying to join the sea?

The wage she makes as an MHK is obviously money well spent 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does she not understand that as an MHK she has other legitimate routes open to her? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She gets to vote, but only if there is a vote. She can make a speech, but no one will listen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Wright Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 As long as she’s focussed on planting flowers in the road she’s diverted away from doing anything dangerous to the Island. Count your blessings. Buy her plants. Pray. 1 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Mexico Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 It would be interesting to discover if any of the potholes currently providing Autumn colour are the same ones that were supposed to have been 'patched' following Haywood's previous planting spree.

We did say at the time that they wouldn't last. They just bunged some tar into the holes without cutting a proper hole with an edge. They probably went within 4 weeks.

Kind of like Beach Buddies but for the roads. Great...thanks. Just been called into the HR office for Googling 'Hole Buddies'. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She planted these flowers in potholes slightly further down the hill, ones that stupidly were not patched last time. The patches they filled in last time have held together ok, only one has completely fell to bits. The road is fucked, totally completely wrecked. They won't deal with it because they don't know what to do. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they could become affiliates of my planned footpath maintenance volunteer group; Bush Bashers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Helmut Fromage Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 This one made me chuckle - it’s the road / Avenue that the bloke who walks round Onchan in HI Viz with 11 shit dogs tied to his waist lives. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is it funny? I see that chap around all over the place, and I wouldn't say they were shit dogs, find it quite sweet really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a family member lives very close to him - 11 yapping dogs on your doorstep is likely to be shit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
