    The wheels of democracy turn slowly...

    A North Wales MS who has called for the 20mph speed limit on restricted roads across Wales to be scrapped is now asking local authorities to save the old 30mph signs ahead of a leadership change.

      The BBC should know better - this is from their web site:

      Epiphany - also known as Three Kings' Day - is a Christian feast day which falls on 6 January.

      Epiphany starts on the 6th - it is not a single event - it covers many other events.

      What numpties - I feel a stiff email coming on...

              Are you challenging my fiscal policy? :nonofinger:

              It’s not my fault if you don’t like it - as the base line was set by the previous government :whistle:

                  Every pothole you try to report around here has already been reported when you look on the website, they only fix the really deep ones so less than 2ins deep it is left until it gets deeper, even if its next to one they are filling.
                  I was looking on the KCC site the other day and in one small section of road there was 13 already reported multiple times.

                            Just went outside on to the road to do a bit of tidying up, to my surprise there was a large pile of poo and it wasn't animal, but you could say it was an animal that done it, so looked at cctv and yes some left it there, i know there is no toilets in the countryside and when you have to go you got'a go, well all cleaned up now :frown:

                              Apparently there are too many obese kids.
                              Now they appear to be malnourished and we need to give all school kids free meal.

                              Something doesn't seem to make sense to me.:scratch:
