AS A resident and tax payer, I expect my council to employ competent staff with common sense.
However, I’m old and wise enough to know they will do their best to screw up even the simplest of decisions.
I’m referring, of course, to all the roadworks taking place on Lord Street and the surrounding area.
You don’t need to be the Brain of Britain to know shops rely heavily on Xmas trade to carry them through.
So, what does our council manage to do every year? Yes, get rid of most of the free town centre parking when it’s most needed. Beggars Belief!
