Honestly, I haven't seen any workers outside my house for years so someone has to do it. Your attempt at humour is predictably pathetic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’d be lucky to get them done once every six weeks otherwise Derek, you might find that the verges adjacent to Chez Flint are the responsibility of Ramsey Commissioners. That they're not being cut might be down to the rumour that the Commissioners' manual workforce has been shrunk to allow for job creation within the Ramsey Town Hall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminal Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I might go and paint these bollards just to see what trouble the guy gets into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b4mbi Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 The mistake he made was to ask in advance if it was ok to do it. Should have just put a hi-vis vest on and done it. Now he's brought attention to it DoI will paint it when it's lashing down in the middle of November... Still should just do it. What are police on about criminal damage???! What's been damaged? Nothing. It's just paint!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoymouse Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Paint them in the middle of the night and ask them to prove it was you. Its amazing someone can graffiti a whole wall in Douglas and get praised (and paid!)) for it but a resident who wants to paint some tatty looking bollards gets their collar felt?

They’ve a court house to support now so I’m not expecting any improvement soon. I wouldn’t mind too much but the chair of the commissioners lives on my street! that said, the park still looks great.
