# They will be around the week before the Local Elections
- true fact

But it will take then 13 weeks to brew the cup of tea before they get their hands dirty.

# Or at the end of March, so as to use up any spare cash in the coffers.

# Are you implying that local councils
spend any surplus needlessly at the end of the year so that they don't have their budget cut?

That would mean that the road near me that has painted mini roundabouts every 200 yds doesn't really need them?

Crazy man!

# Of course, you don't really believe
that mini-roundabouts serve an actual purpose do you? Other than to ride straight over the top of them.

# Understandably, as you don't live near
me, you also neglect the fact that it is a residential road that these are on, meaning that no-one can reverse out of their drive without breaking the law. It has gone proper mental near me over the last 5 years. Mini-roundabouts, speed bumbs, residential parking that you have to pay hundreds of pounds a year just to park outside your house, WIN!

# I hate speed bumps
and of course Residential Parking is a nightmare for me when I'm at work on me bus. But I totally agree every Council in this land has gone mad for Traffic Calming at the expense of residents being able to park near their house.

# This is also true as the Local Elections are only once every 4 years
so they must have a reason to spend that spare cash else they next fiscal year they will have a reduced budget.
