    What does the sign say, I can't see with that flag in the way?

    Why don't you send this link to the Council? Call it a Petition against them wasting tax payers money.

    Which sign are they talking about? The one on the side of the road, or the one that is already partially obscured by the wall?

    On a releated (sort of) subject I was crawling down a very steep hill in Poole this week. When I came around a corner I came across what can only be described as the most stupid cycle lane I've ever seen which has just been put in...

    ?type=display

    ...not unreasonably I was momentarily distracted trying to figure out how the hell cars coming the other way, as I shortly would have to do, are supposed to use the road without driving over the central line or into the cycle lane.

    Anyway, I turn my attention back to the road in front to be greeted by a speed trap. Would still only be doing 33,34 tops so got fingers crossed they've taken a sensible atitude bearing in mind the distraction that's been created on the other side of the road in the name of road safety.

    [cite]Posted By: JollyRobin[/cite]Ahaha. That response is genius.

    Entertaining agreed but easily overcome I'm afraid...


    Dear Mr March,

    Thank you for your letter of whenever. In response I would point out there were two of us in the car.

    Yours in pedantry,

    Mr Jobsworth

    In which case, surely the counter-response would be to say that they couldn't therefore have replicated the 'problem' accurately - as surely having two people in the car would preclude the driver from becoming distracted because the passenger would be able to read the sign for the driver? (Unless he/she was blind of course, but that would just be ridiculous...)

    Bit of confusion here: what you chaps think is a sign on the other side of the wall is actually the end gables of my neighbour's house: look closely. Dazzler is right though in that the flag is a few feet above the sign, though he has had the advantage of seeing it 'live'.

    Cheers, EG, but never see many goalposts up at the Grammer: all rugger and hockey by the look of it.

    Curbs, am working on a response with jnr. will incorporate comments from here, will keep you posted!

    Thanks again all, takes your mind of other things for a minute or two don't it.
