The problem is Patrick, you post about this subject as you have a grudge.
You really couldn't careless about the condition of the road, in fact, I'm sure you want to see it go unfinished, that's what sad.

Do me a favor, keep out of this thread and spend your posting time on more constructive or positive stuff, thanks.

I noticed whilst delivering prawns to a valued customer up in la mulata that work started on the road again and a small area from the german butchers to the school has now been completed, we should have a completed road some time in the future.....im wondering why they do it in small sections ,as it must be more cost effective to do large stretches in one go

That is precisely why they do it in small sections. More chances to bleed off the money.

Trucks and trucks and trucks and more trucks. The road is closed at the moment and it looks like the La Mulata road is being surfaced TODAY!

It looks as though from Villas Karibik down will be done today and the top section in a few days!

How do the two schools gain access during the works?

They had to close the road for about an hour to do a narrow section but it is re-opened now. The school traffic is causing a log jam but hey, who cares? They are almost down to the highway now!

I bought those chairs in good faith and if people didn't come to my house and eat and drink so much they might still all have 4 legs, although I doubt it LOL

It seems every thing and everyone leaves my house at least partially legless!

From what I've hear it's a race track. I hope you don't get run over. What are the odds on an accident within 2 weeks?
