Rough ride as drivers' nemesis resurfaces

I ONCE asked a friend of mine, council worker Phil Rhodes, what it was like working for the council.

- With Graham Davies

He replied it was swings and roundabouts really and sometimes the odd pothole.

He was in fact quite keen on potholes, having been a member of the Pothole Appreciation Society, which met at the bottom of a different street every week.

He had tripped over some really interesting potholes but the highlight was a visit to Pothole Land in a small village in North Wales. The experience boasted two kilometres of award-winning potholes "with very little actual road to spoil your fun".
