Is it PotG?

In the grand scheme of things right now, potholes might have been shunted down the priority list for the authorities for a while.

Hey you're not old, its one of my bugbears at the moment.
These pot holes are everywhere, its down to the fuvkwittery of the local councils, not keeping up the repair the roads.
My car hit a massive hole the other day, which was covered over by rain, it made a hell of a bang, luckily no damage was done.
There's an outfit up here, employed by the local counci to make running repairs, but all they seem to do is drop a lump of porridge in the hole and hope for the best.
Its maddening I tell you, we need to get the Romans back and build the roads, as our medieval ones are sh!te

Driving chariots instead of cars would be better for the environment too.

I drop my kids off at school there, and it´s massive. How the hell did that happen?

I assume you have reported this to the Council so that they can use some of the money pledged in the recent Budget to get out and repair this hole.

When it used to be called Road Fund Licence the f*ckers had no excuse for shit roads. Potholes have never been this bad and the tyre companies are doing very well out of it.

When I destroyed my disc wear indicator by hitting a deep hole between Hurstpierpoint and Hassocks three weeks ago I was greatly comforted by the knowledge that the country now has two enormous aircraft carriers.
That news would greatly comfort me.
Did you get distracted looking at Dunk's house?

I'm sure the council roads dept don't have a lot to do with any virus prevention.
And the bloody things have been around for months and months in some cases. The problem is that they don't deal with them as small holes and so they get bigger crater like with cars continually going down them.
Some of the back roads are in a just bloody awful state of disrepair and the crunch on the tyres and suspension as you go down the hole is cringing.

I'm sure they don't.
I look forward to hearing positive feedback from any contact with said authority in the near future.

Recent rain falls have caused the pothole epidemic.
Not helped by my council digging out potholes along the A259, in readiness for repair, and then not repairing them.
FOR THE SECOND TIME.

I drove to Mile Oak the other day around the Graham Avenue area, and it was like taking part in a stage of the Dakar Rally. With the maHOOsive building project going on there in the fields behind Gorse Close / Overdown Rise, there is a constant flow of HGV's taking away fasands of tons of excavated chalk day in, day out, and it has wreaked havoc on the roads there (building an access road from the A27 was clearly seen as an expense too far). Looks like some of the potholes have had the customary half-arsed repair, only to be quickly mashed again by works traffic.
God knows what the children are doing there now.
