It's...

...that time of the year again.

This is the road into the village on my lunchtime walk. There's quite a few roads round our way are currently having surface dressing applied. Watch out for the stone chips if you're driving and if you're cycling then dive for cover!

Fortunately they sweep them quite quickly after application. I've not had to cycle down this one but I did drive down it the day after application and it was like a washboard but all smooth again now.
