These workmen were using a digger like this one, but with a ‘picky-uppy-arm’ in order to lift up……. A PIECE OF KERB!!!!!!  It was about 2ft long and 0.5ft tall.  As we sat at the temporary traffic lights allowing them to delicately swing it from side to side (it looked ridiculous on the end of a digger) and lower it into the pavement, the mutiny boiled up inside me.  What has happened to real men??  Dustmen are not allowed to do anything with a wheely bin that they cannot move with two fingers, resulting in dust carts holding up reams of traffic.  Builders take 5x the amount of time to lower a tiny piece of kerb into a road hole because they have to use a digger, wasting tax payers money because the poor little darlings are not allowed to lift ‘heavy’ things.  THEY ARE BUILDERS!! Sort it out.
