Oh Ffs.
Wicklow County Council are a bumbling embarrassment as far as I’m concerned, and they don’t take a joke too well either
I commend Greystones Guide for highlighting this issue in such a light-hearted manner while getting the point across. I respect that the work involved to clear the flooding is unpleasant and difficult but so is trying to use the facilities affected by it. The manner in which Derek Mitchell and Grainne McLoughlin responded shows a certain level of defensiveness which doesn’t respect their constituents. So instead of criticising the humour of the article, the should try to go with the flow, so to speak, and add their voices on behalf said constituents.
