Is there a new H&S issue with Lay-bys? You see so many coned off with closure notices until 5 Jan '23? Just seems very odd.

Never late in a V8
I think its to do with any roadworks comming up. Most closed lay bys where roadworks are used to keep machinery overnight.

Chelsea have bought the land.
Sobvious innit? Germans put beach towels on the sunbeds they want to use later. Other people [word I mustn't use, although NSC seems to consider it OK to use when referring to Crystal Palace fans] put out cones on lay-bys (need somewhere to park up for Christmas, presumably). 
Never read anything too quickly. I saw 'labias'.
My bad.

We need to start a Neighbourhood Coned Watch.
If it is the crowd I (slightly) tongue-in-cheek suggested is responsible, it's a penny to a pound the police will be keeping well away! The Neighbourhood Watch will be on its own!

Living the dream
Feck me, I hope not. It's a bloody nightmare driving around Shoreham/Worthing/Brighton area at the moment. Dont need more of them.
Was just thinking today as I was sat in todays 4th set of traffic roadworks, there is soooooo much traffic on the roads. I miss the good old WFH days so I can drive around without all the other idjits on the road (being a tradesman, WHF isnt an option).

Hmm. That could have had a whole new meaning to Park and Ride.
