General (General discussion, talk about anything.)
Well, listen. I've reported another pothole. Four, actually, all together near my house.
Now, acouple of months ago, Iwas praising them,as I reported a pothole (same one) and they came the day after and repaired (oooo, errrrrr?) it.
Well, it's just as bad now. So, I reported them all again.
Got a reply immediately .....

Yesterday, I left early doors to go to Thorne, Doncaster area. When I got back, it was dark. Got out of the car and noticed white squares all round the potholes. "hmmmm", I thought, "they've been, but not repaired them".
Later, I was reading my e-mails and one was from Wigan council ....

Your report ref 2184860 in the ‘Potholes’ category has now been classed as completed.
--------------------------------------------------------
So, it's "classed as completed" is it?
Although, nothing's been done except spray white lines round them!
They'll all be patting themselves on t'back at year-end. Giving awards out for efficiency and progress.
Yet, things are being recorded as 'completed' with nothing actually being done!
