Speeding ticket.

Received notice of above today. 36 in 30 zone. Last one i received was 1968.
I was going to Mounting Ash to pick up some wimberrys from a picker. This is going to be some expensive tart. Have noticed if i put wimberries, winberries, wimberrys, winberrys or any other spelling it comes wrong on spell checker.

Most tarts end up being expensive!

Oh heck! what a bummer

It might be getting worse as I've been reading that all local authorities in the UK will be able to enforce motoring offences shortly

London & Cardiff have been coining it in to the tune of £58.2 million in 2019

I think Speeding Tickets should be a badge of honour - they mean you are watching the road and not the speedometer! Absolute cash cows.

There’s spinning and there’s spinning......

(But I happen to sympathise with the sentiment)

Rubbish, unfortunate but don't agree with that view. In fact that is a pretty daft thing to say.

The last bit is not so daft!

If by that you mean cash cows......I completely agree

You have no choice but to watch the roads to swerve the damn potholes & cracks!
