Harlow men go fishing down a pothole
News / Tue 21st Feb 2023 am28 09:56am
THREE Harlow men went looking for a deep body of water in order to make the big catch.
They decided against lakes, lochs, rivers or reservoirs but instead headed for the potholes of Third Avenue.
James Abinger and friends got lots of beeps from passing cars but were also making a serious point about the state of the roads in Harlow.
We think that might have caught the big one or did it get away?

Well done for the publicity this has generated. Hopefully it will shame ECC into repairing the hundreds of potholes in Harlow. But I won't hold my breath.

Do they sell day tickets? Council will probably contemplate sending a waterways baliff because by the time Essex CC get around to repair it'll probably be a lake!!

Quite a laugh! But seriously when might our four (stagnant) Harlow County Councillors wake up and shake up ECC staff?

Surely time for more penises to be spray painted around potholes, isn’t it? That was excellent

Imagine spraying all road defects in a high Viz paint then sending a drone up to inspect the level of damage... That would be quite striking footage. Even better paint using glow in the dark paint and that is the issue with streetlights being turned off solved! The streets have never been brighter!

Outside burntmill school is a total disaster area. Who ever is responsible should hang their heads in shame.

Great - I have had to replace three tyres, suspension coil shock absorber and have a wheel strained and only lived in Essex for two years. What do they do with the ROAD FUND TAX, they certainly are not looking after the roads. Going to send my son to see what he can catch

Since Mr Stewart was at Princess Alexandra the other day, it’s good to see another ROD helping out in Harlow. Well done lads.
