3 April - Not so much Super as Loopy
When one passes by road hazards in the dark It
it is not easy to be sure exactly what the situation is so I didn’t report

Penhill Road where one Keep Left sign of
the pair had been flattened leaving the back of its partner with no reflector and virtually invisible. Rightly or wrongly
I tend to assume that those who live nearby will report such things. Maybe they didn’t
because at 00:40 on the morning of All Fool’s Day, an SL3 demolished it completely.
Note Keep Left sign transferred to tthe footpath.

bring residents outside to make sure no neighbour had suffered an accident or explosion.
One called Bexley’s

A call to the Council at nine o’clock got the run around and a promise to call
back. That is now 48 hours ago and still no response. However the Keep Left
signs were restored to their rightful place when I went by at 06:30 this
