State of our roads.

[Morningside]

I'm sure this gets posted every five years or so but the roads of today seem worse than some ex soviet country.

Not just potholes that the council seems to fix by putting a nice yellow box around it. I assume that this is an indication to actually repair it but obviously the message got lost in the post. Roads have more undulating thrills than any theme park and when they do actually do something you either see some disastrous patch work effect like a cheap 1970s granny jumper or that bloody cheap cop out of stone chip.

Main roads are a chicane and getting close to super mario kart 64.

Apart from the roads the signage is impossible to read as no one now seems to clear away hedges or trees so everything is obscured.

I know, I know road tax does not pay for roads and is now excise duty but what the hell is going on out there?

Which ex-soviet country did you have in mind? The UK's roads are certainly massively better than Bulgaria's where pot holes big enough to rip wheels off in the middle of the motorway is the norm.

Yeah but they only use donkey and carts.

Not that much different from Suffolk then?

I live near the coast just down from Lowestoft so it's close enough.
