A83

Postby hellish » Fri Nov 02, 2007 7:36 pm

OK, so you didn't want to go to the Loch Fyne Oyster Bar, and the thought of an afternoon tea in Inveraray makes you want to boak...but bear a thought for us stranded Glaswegians. It's a hell of along way round and we need your support. We're now ex-pats, we've resorted to watching River City....please go to Tarbet, take a couple of Glasgow bricks, help us reinforce the A83.

It's sad but clearly you Glaswegians don't care...you've got your M8...you can get from Ibrox to Parkhead on a 3 laned superhighway.....but it might take you while! please take some earth (stones are good too) to the Rest and be Thankful.

aye, good point...but the earth's now all at the bottom of the hill.... maybe a couple of bits of two by four to shore up the side of the road would do the job.... it's a hell of a long way round!

So it was Alex, passing through early last Sunday morning...he's not exactly sylphlike but I wouldn't have thought he'd cause such devastation. Anyway he should have the common decency to get back up there and sort it because I've got to be in Glasvegas on Monday morning and I'm not looking forward to having to get up at silly o'clock.

Just read on a divey forum that the Tarbet to Crianlarich Rd is going to be shut for 'maintanence' as well. It might be put back now but that's probably too sensible.
