Red means go

It says a lot about the village where I live when one of the most interesting things to happen of late is a set of roadworks and temporary traffic light system on the junction in front of our flat.

Three mulletted blokes turned up yesterday to have fag breaks interspersed with occasional digging up of paving stones. They deemed that the 20m or so of road that was taken out of action needed a three-way traffic light system and now everyone has to watch the mullet men smoke for five minutes while they wait for the lights to change.

On the up side however, there's actually a bit of traffic stuck in the village. After years not riding between cars or having any red lights to go through, this is all a tiny bit exciting.

Roadworks, mullets and traffic lights!

If they didn't have mullets I'd have been sure they were Irish. If they finish up and then come back later in the year to dig it up again then they have to be Irish!
