Flags to be Replaced

[Highway Man]

Do you cover both East Riding and Hull council areas. I had a feeling from what you said before that you are mainly East Riding. I was wondering if there was any difference in the policy when it comes to the two different councils. In fact, I think you said you also went further afield into North Yorkshire council areas. Are all the areas you cover doing the same thing.

We all have our own areas that we cover, some teams are nationwide covering areas with no or little depots. It all depends on your skillset and willingness to travel as a lot of times it will involve overnight stays. I do motorways but of late I have been on heritage work as that is an interest of mine, they only allow the best to work on the best and I am No1 on highways, in fact the whole country could go into collapse if I ever left so they look after me.

Also on that note of being best of the best, it is ironic that I am also No1 in the looks dept, our depot I work from is a large depot and has huge offices that deal with nationwide issues so house a lot of staff, all of the girls (approx 200) all fancy me and say that I am the sexiest man in highways. It is a compliment but to be fair I knew that anyway. When I am walking about the yard they are all up at the windows looking out and wolf whistles fill the air.

Do you get many flags on motorways. I would have thought that National Highways would be keen to take them down. I wonder how people would put flags on motorway lampposts. Does anyone ever put them on central reservation lampposts.

We have them on the bridges but not on the posts, we take them down immediately as they are a real danger

As will all illegal flags. No need for the self aggrandising..."flags to be replaced" jakanory blarney either. Just say you have been ordered to take them all down. No shame in that.

One of my neighbours has a Union flag on a proper white poll in his garden which looks really smart. That is patriotic. Although I think litter picking is more patriotic.

On a roundabout on A38 near to where I live some tosser has cable tied a flag to every lamppost. It looked crap to start with, but now some of the cable ties have snapped, a couple of the flags are ripped, and most of the others are just wrapped around the posts. That's not patriotic, that's just dickheadedness.
