thers going to be a lot of crashing when it rains,

we were getting some irrigation water run off down the road,  you chould see how greasey the road had become with the heat bringing oils up out the tar/b!tchumin add a bit of water to it and it's a skidpan    all good fun as long as ou know it is

Melting might improve our roads - the potholes of Sheffield are notorious. They best sort it out before next year or we'll be fishing Tour De France cyclists out of sinkholes all summer
