The road was blocked by cones and yellow and red signs declaring ROAD CLOSED, DIVERSION --->

For "surface patching" work, lasting a week.

Not to worry, the warning sign had been there for a week and the detour is only a mile, leading to the other end of the closed road.

A quick blat round the twisties led to the other end. A nice change.

Ninety minutes later, coming back...hello, the closure signs are reversed and can't be read.

So let's proceed and see what happens...

A hundred yards past the junction, cones are again blocking the road...bugger.

But wait...

Why's that bloke moving the big closure signs...?

'Scuse me, Mr Road Repair Man, can I nip though or have they started work yet..?

You can go straight through, mate....SOMEBODY'S CLOSED THE WRONG BLOODY ROAD...

Oh, how we laughed...

The end...
