The signs are up telling me that the street lights down our road will be replaced with LED ones this week.

I'll be sure to take plenty of before and after pictures.  I wait in trepidation ...

It is healthier to be mutton dressed as lamb, than mutton dressed as mutton!

Either they are a bit behind or........they know you are spying on them, Mark!

I expect, like parcel couriers, they're waiting for the least convenient moment, just to surprise you...

It's bloomin' quick when they do it. You'll come home and find a new set of posts and a row of old stumps waiting to be pulled out.

Wednesday has passed, event free ...

You had better come out from behind that bush, now, Mark!

Friday came and went and we still have sodium lights and the sign still says they're being converted next week.

I think you had better ring the council to find out what is going on, and what is causing the delay!!!!!

It's when the sign says 'This week' that you have to worry !

That's right!  All the time the sign says "next week" then, logically, it is impossible for them to ever do the conversion work :)
