The joke is always on the ratepayers - Throughout it's incompetent history the Wellington city council has been constantly mocking us...
We got a close up view of one of their scams in action when some workmen did a repair to the footpath over the road from us - there was one guy doing all the work, with 7 other guys standing there watching, and 52 road cones - for real, I counted them!
They even had a wheelchair ramp on both sides of the road just in case, with an extra dozen road cones and a guy in charge of managing the two ramps!
Road cones are breeding and taking over the country...
