If only the councils were as good at fixing potholes as they are at coming up with excuses as to why the road surface is within acceptable limits[0].

Even when they do bother to fix the pothole, they seem to just dump a bit of cold lay asphalt in the worst bit and hand tamp it down rather than properly preparing the surface and levelling the repaired section. As soon as another lorry goes over it, it just breaks up again.
