Why do they do it ??

[dick]

I was woken up yesterday by men (Severn Trent ) digging a hole outside my block on a busy junction. . They dug down to the water pipes and spent some time on them.Approximately 2 and a half hours later they filled in the hole and went. I assumed they were off for an early lunch. They set up a 3 way traffic lights set and a forest of cones. This morning ,no one in attendance but we still have the lights and cones!. If they are true to form ,it could be a couple of weeks before they put things back as they were! The road is full of pot-holes as it is !

Forget my previous post. THEY RE BACK ! Making good the hole?To remark about a post I did months ago, all got ear defenders anywhere except over their ears !

Its annoying when they leave the lights up over a weekend and by Sunday afternoon the batteries have run out and they're blooming chaos.

Could be worse you might have had this well known Gentleman helping out digging the hole , no electric lights in his day just to stop /go board which you briefly see in some shots.
