There`s been a track through a narrow piece of woodland from a housing estate to the main road for years. The council fenced it off while they proceeded to remove trees and put in a some rather expensive looking paving.
It looked nice, so no real complaints there .....until two weeks later they fenced it off again with six foot chain link fencing and put up a sign saying "footpath closed" !!!!
Nutters !!! :shock:
Our Local NHS trust spent million quid on reburbing 2 wards of a small community hospital and before the wards were re-opened or had any patients in it ...they closed the hospital.
Same trust payed £80,000 to recarpet the whole 1st floor of a hospital which consisted of guess what ....Geriatric wards. Six months later the carpets are stripped out because the place smelled eye-stingingly of urine Oh surprise!
Sometimes it just makes you wonder don't it.

another calamity up here was the introduction of tolls on the forth road bridge...they restructured it causing massive tail backs not long after they decided to do away with them....more tail backs.....then they decided to build a new bridge...in kincardine! (which has helped i have to admit)

That bridge in kincardine also deprived our doggers of a rather secluded site..unless there are some particularly brazen doggers still using it... sorry off the thread..just thinking out loud!

No one runs councils they are a law to themselves, an enigma, nearly organised chaos. Call it what you willbut no one runs them.

Council workmen painted a new BUS STOP sign, by obviously a bus stop.
Either they were bad spellers or not quite British, as they spelt it...BUS STOF.
The council after three weeks of arguing, decided to admit it had got it wrong, and would re paint it. At a cost of??
777 If it happened around our way (And it could) it should end up reading BUS MIGHT STOP

My (County) council is very good. When I wanted a new rcycling bin I just rang up and one was dropped off next bin day.
Sadly if you want a large piece of rubbish (sofa) removing, they charge you £14 but they DO take it.
OK, I know you'll all waiting for the sarcy comment - but South Derbyshire County Council are actually pretty good.
Oh, apart from spelling my village name wrong on a new sign, but it was replaced within 2 weeks.
