The lane is shut from yesterday until Wednesday for pipe repair work. Nice of them to tell us NOT.

My sister has only just found out about the stage finish in Exeter. She isn't interested in cycling but I should have warned her to avoid going in that day because it will probably be 'somewhat tricky'! :whistle:
Somewhat tricky may be an understatement.

Some years ago they decided to resurface the road I lived on at the time
No-one in the road had any clue that they were doing it - but by chance all the cars that were normally parked on it were either somewhere else that day or someone was in and able to move it
Also - no-one was trapped in and unable to get out of the close

WHen the council got moaned at - they pointed out that a notice had been put in the paper
by chance our copies of the local paper were in a pile in the garage waiting for me to remember to put them in the recycling
I found the notice - 2 months before 4 lines at the bottom of a left hand page naming about 10 roads to be resurfaced - with no dates gievn

They are not over good at communication at times

p.s. - that was also in Wales - Bangor to be precise
