As soon as motorcyclists and saftey are mentioned thet are very reactive.
I sent an email to the council about a particulary bad pot hole near where I live and the implications of riding a bike. I had a quick response and the pothole was fixed within a few days.
They are frightened of getting sued.

What is the Parish priest doing trying to get involved in road maintenance issues for? Bloody clown, another example of the catholic church thinking it's bigger than it is. They should mind their place.

Thankfully it's getting repaired.

Parish Council TP, not the Parish Priest.

Anyway, even if it was the parish priest, catholic priests have always taken an unhealthy interest in any kind of hole so...

Well them too! That's even worse, a 'gaggle' of them!

Give me a Steyr, 10 rounds at 400m and get them walking around a bit ...

I watched that tonight with my mum-we used to live in Navestock and didn't recognise any of the pictures. Did make us laugh when they mentioned the 'village' though-there is no village at Navestock-it is a farming area with 2 pubs, a green-and that's it.............
Always was a rat run though-even back in the 60's-we lived there from 64-74.
