You must be joking




Back again , panic over at Musselburgh following a few words of wisdom.
So back to today , I was driving back into town and was stopped at the traffic lights at Haymarket and could see the cluster of men on the pavement in their hi-viz jackets. In the photo you can just see eight but there were nine, and not one of them was doing a hands turn - so as gthey say " there is a hole in the pavement and the Council are looking into it" - mega efficient and reminds me of thje other question , " how many men does it take to change a light bulb - but I cannot remeber the answer".
Round into the car park and the car in front had a piece of paper stuck under his wiper blade, being nosy , I had a look and saw that it was there to hide the expired tax disc - perhaps this person is unaware that the DLA computer with be sending them an automated SORN fixed penalty to add to their woes.
Headed for home and the spanking new unmarked white BMW estate car that Lothian and Borders Police are now using to prey on unsuspecting motorists - quite smart, and with a victim who was probably speeding on the A720 City by pass.
So now it is time to get turned round and had back to The Mercat to meet Sparky mark where between us we may well cause a bit of flooding there as we get into our DIY guise.
