Yes it is. A rat run through my village last year wrecked the roads that were suddenly being used by A road traffic.
In December the route was scalped and resurfaced all through that wet period. They only abandoned work on one day of heavy rain but after scalping the top 2 inches off, what was exposed was given a spray of hot bitumen to glue any loose stuff then a new 2 to 3 inch top coat of hot tarmac was laid.

What if they find there is no climate emergency, after all?
What has reality got to do with the climate-change industry? ;-)
Fair point....:-)
Meconium if you're very young.
That's green, not black.

Somehow I have a feeling that isn't what they will find.
