But the surface on 'The Isle of Skye Road' (Greenfield, past Dovestones and over to Holmfirth) is shocking. Good one perhaps for finding all those irksome rattles though. I suspect that they tested the Mars rover on that road, since if it could cope with that terrain, Mars would hold no fears for it.

Did I mention, I'm from Diggle?
