Jenny Paterson, 75, was told not to do any heavy lifting but decided to ignore the advice and fix the potholes outside her home in Halkirk, Caithness, herself.
A fed-up resident has taken matters into her own hands by attempting to fix potholes outside her home using a bucket and shovel. Jenny Paterson, who was advised medically not to do any heavy lifting, couldn't stand the poor condition of the roads near her residence and decided to grab some tools to tackle the issue.
"It has completely eroded away, great big deep potholes which are always full of water, and I'd just had enough." "I classed it as erosion when I reported it to the council. We did that and there was still a lot of water and a lot of big deep holes." "I don't mind working away and weeding and all the rest of it, but that's beyond me that's just a temporary fill-in. I want it done properly. I have been in contact with the council. I've sent them a long missive.
