Rod Stewart mends roads
By Andy Malt | Published on Monday 14 March 2022
Rod Stewart is known for his love of model trains, but now he’s turned his hand to real life roadworks. The musician posted videos on Instagram this weekend showing him and “the boys” filling in potholes on a road near his home in Harlow, Essex.
“I’m repairing the streets where I live, because no one [else] can be bothered to”, he says in the first video, which shows him and a team of men shovelling gravel into potholes.
“This is the state of the roads near where I live in Harlow”, he goes on in a second video, showing the very worn out road. “It’s been like this for ages. People are bashing their cars up and the other day there was an ambulance with a burst tyre”.
“My Ferrari can’t go up here at all”, he then laments, before complaining that there are “millions and millions of pounds” being spent on the nearby M11 motorway.
No word yet on whether or not Stewart can now get his sportscar to the shops.
