They have been 'working' on it again today... ::)

First they dumped tonnes of water on it from this tanker with a strange arrangement of wheels...  rubschin:


Then they rollered it all down with a vibrato-roller thing...



Then they buggered off... ::)

Interesting to watch the traffic coming up the road and realising at the last minute that there is a 2" deep trench across the road...  noooo:

It turns out that the 'Inspection pipe' is in fact a drain... not sure if it was supposed to be a drain or just ended up in the gutter instead of in the middle of the pavement...  noooo:

Bloody cowboy builders  cussing:

I was sent an e-mail with a few images of a block of flats on their side and immediately thought "photo-shopped". Then found this
