A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools!!

Bout time, was like a farm track, a bad one at that.
It's not the pace of life that concerns me, it's the sudden stop at the end!

They haven't sealed it with proper non-porous tarmac, just put more gravel on top and tamped it down.
I give it two cold winters before it's back to being a potholed mess.

Its protected by English Nature or something similar so can't use tarmac - has to be a certain type of sand/gravel

It's been lovely and smooth the last few days, all the car parks have been rammed full of CSR shooters.

Allow me to be original and urge the NSC to build a proper road and tell whichever meddlers it is to f*** off.

Perhaps they have special newts there that can only exist on a diet of sand and gravel...

Or point out that laying a decent road requires all the environmentally unfriendly machinery etc on site once every 50 years as opposed to redoing a bad job once every 5 years. bo...cks all over.
