Man in Hole

No, it's not a manhole.  It is a hole in the road and there is a man in it!  There's also a ladder poking out of the hole in the road and a few other workmen orbiting - doing whatever workmen do when they're orbiting a hole with a man in it.  I hope that isn't too confusing for you - it is for me and I just wrote it!

Like most people in the neighbourhood, I've no idea of what's going on outside.  All I do know is that we've got a patch of mud by the Stop sign, no road outside, and a hole with a man in it!  Maybe after last night's storm the earth opened and swallowed 'Flying Eagles Band' or whatever they're called.

There's one guy outside who looks like he wouldn't fit down the hole, the other looks like a pipe cleaner, maybe they're holding him in reserve.  Usually these folk wear a hard-hat, but these boys must have a hard head that falling debris bounces off.  Given the size of the pipes to the left of the Stop sign, only a pipe cleaner would fit down that hole!  I have to wonder though, what will they run into down there?  Bugs Bunny or perhaps the Hunchback of La Crosse.  Then again, they may even find a stray Brontosaurus down there - you never know, something has to be causing all these earthquakes!

The main question that has us, and no doubt our neighbours wondering is when are we going to get our road completed.  It would be nice for everyone to have access to their property and for car owners to park their cars in their garage.  Conspiracy theorists think that it's all a nasty plot by the council to get their paws on extra loot by charging for parking on surrounding streets.  Yeah, like they're going to raise the millions they need to get out of the red by doing that... there are more refined ways of highway robbery!

Well, if you're planning to go down any holes today. Stay safe and have a nice day.  Please don't forget our web site: Click Here
