take lots of pics before you report it cos they'll fill it asap when you tell them. then send them the bill.

Get some decent pictures of the skanky road hole, you'll probably need at some point.

cheers for the replies guys.

have taken pics of hole and wheel. am contacting the council press office to explain how I'm going to write a daily diary with the local paper on how well the council deals with my claim...should put the wind up them a bit. four years of PR degree are hopefully about to pay off.....

JV - way ahead of you mate! already got a quote to relace the rims with *cough larger ones* he he he wqill hopefully try to get them resprayed at the same time ;-)
