Despite two signs in the middle of the highway clearly stating that the road is closed it is amazing how many people ignore them and drive past only to be forced to turn around in front of the house and head back in search of a diversion* ...
... out here in the sticks we take our entertainment where we can find it.
This evening VI turned up with his long suffering spouse and a lamb carcass. 30%'s wallet is now £100 lighter and the freezer is filled with over 40lb of local lamb.

* to be fair to the motorists Severn Trent could have done a better job of signing the diversion** in view of the fact that it is an A road** apparently the diversion signs disappeared, allegedly removed by locals who didn't like the increased traffic on the back lane
